Orlo Vista
ABOUT US
Orlo Vista is proud of its history as one of Orange County’s distinct communities. This community was once an incorporated town along Old Winter Garden Road between Hiawassee Road and Pine Hills Road. The area is home to a chamber of commerce and hall, two elementary schools, a great county park, post office and Orange County’s first volunteer fire department – most with Orlo Vista’s name and all within close proximity. Above all, Orlo Vista values what gives the community its true identity – the people who live there.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I have to come to the meetings?
The short answer is “no”, but coming to a meeting gives you an opportunity to meet your neighbors and hear from experts in a number of fields. You will also have a chance to speak directly with Orange County Neighborhood Services and Orange County Sheriff’s Deputies (often the Sector Captain).
Does volunteering take a lot of time?
Helping with a project does not have to take a long time. You can call a vendor to get a price quote, you can change messages on a reader board sign, you can help gather petitions for speed humps on your street, or maybe write an article for the newsletter. With Safe Neighborhoods, you can spend your time on an issue that is important to you.
No matter the effort, can you make a difference?
YES!!!!
Orlo Vista Zip code 32835 ranks 76 out of 91 Central Florida zip codes.
It is always a matter of perception. We must THINK and be POSITIVE about OUR neighborhood. We are very fortunate; the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, the County Commissioners, and Our Residents have helped improve the overall well being of our neighborhood.
