It is is believed Kissimmee is a modern spelling of an ancient tribal word. The city was founded as…read morea small trading post on the northern bank of Lake Tohopekaliga then known as the community of Allendale. After the Civil War, the area was purchased along with four million acres of marshland and plains for 25 cents an acre by Hamilton Disston, the owner of Disston Saw Company in Philadelphia. By 1882 a one room school house opened on Main Street and Kissimmee was incorporated as a city one year later in 1883. Today you can head down US-192 through the welcome gate into historic Kissimmee. There are many historic buildings and attractive old trees. Many of the buildings have murals on them as part of the Osceola Art, ARTisNOW, a public murals project. One of the oldest businesses on Broadway is Makinson Hardware. It was established in 1884 and is reported to be the oldest retail hardware stores in Florida still in operation. The historic downtown is filled with an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants, and businesses. Restaurants include Abracadabra Ice Cream Factory, 3 Sister's Speakeasy, Big John's Rockin BBQ, Broadway Pizza Bar, Buchito, Neptuno's Bar & Grill, Pa'l Callejón, Willy's Wieners, and 2v Brothers Steakhouse. Shopping destinations include Echoes of Yesterday Antique Mall and Lanier's Historic Downtown Marketplace, Other places of note in the downtown is the Monument of States constructed in 1943 after the attack on Pearl Harbor to inspire American solidarity by incorporating a rock sent from each state. Another place is the The Osceola County Courthouse which opened on May 6, 1890 and is Florida's coldest continuously operating courthouse. Kissimmee has many open space and parks along the shoreline of Lake Tohopekaliga with walkways and green spaces which are opportunities for relaxing. Kissimmee Lakefront Park has a fishing pier, walking paths, picnic pavilions, a playground, and lots of shade trees. It is used to host many events throughout the year. To make the downtown more visitor friendly the Kissimmee Community Redevelopment Agency has completed projects on the streets of downtown, Main Street, Broadway, Dakin, Monument, Darlington. You can park for free on the street or at the upgraded Pleasant Street parking lot and Toho Square parking garage. The historic Key's Service Station on the corner of Broadway and Drury Avenues has been restored and repurposed as the Kissimmee Mainstreet Welcome Center. On the first Friday of each month is the Kissimmee Valley Farmers Market, where the community can shop from local farmers and artisans between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.

It's free, and has the MOST patient, helpful Masterspace Technicians (Jon and Grace) you could ever hope for! Communication when inquiring, booking time, and reminders of your upcoming date, was excellent. I had the pleasure of working with Jon on two occasions. Technology hates me, but Jon didn't let it stop me! He explained all the equipment, and when it was time to record (with an outside director thru Zoom), Jon got us connected! He also came back a number of times (while also assisting other guests) to help with operator errors (mine). He was so patient and kind, and I actually learned a lot! Will definitely use the Lab again, and this time, with more experience! Thank you so much, Jon, for making my maiden voyage there such a great experience!

Valencia Community College is a great institution. They have continued to progress and grow…read moresuccessfully. They started off as a two-year degree institution and now they have developed bachelors programs and have a program called "Direct Connect" where if you go into a degree that you can start, but not finish in Valencia, you can continue in UCF and you have a guarantee admission to UCF. It also means you get preference as a future admission in UCF if you want to go into a graduate program. With Direct Connect you can also enroll in UCF, but take classes in Valencia, if transportation or location is an issue for you; and these courses count as UCF credits. Finally, not only do they continue to grow and have 4 campuses between Osceola Campus and Orange County, with several attainable degrees, they also offer financial aid programs, scholarships and grants. Actually, they have around 25,000 students you get grants. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY152HAuJFg) Finally, they offer online classes and have several programs to help students be able to succeed in the academia.

So if you are not around that age group...I suggest you go somewhere else. They need to work on making the students feel more welcomed. The career center counselor is an A-hole and he will make you feel like you can't make it in life. He needs to work on how to talk to people. The cafeteria doesn't make your food with love. Plus some of the professors are not doing a good job on helping students learn. You will leave confused out of these classes. On the plus side the Library staff is great and the writing center. They will make sure to help you in whatever you need. This used to be such a great campus but now I am just never coming back for sure.

I was told to go to the Kissimmee Library and use the law data base computers, but they did not work. I called the probate office at the court, and unlike the two nice ladies I spoke to at the front, this one was rude and impatient. She got upset because I said she was talking to fast. I was told I would just have to look on the internet for said form. I have been on the net for hours and cannot find the form I need. I do not understand how the county would not have this type of probate form on the website. Incomprehensible. The gentlemen at security were courteous and friendly though.
