A rapidly growing community with new housing developments
Neo City is a booming community in one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation. In fact, Osceola County’s population has more than doubled since the year 2000. Neo City’s proximity to East Lake Tohopekaliga has propagated a burgeoning housing market, and St. Cloud, sitting only a few miles east, has put locals close to ample locally-owned restaurants. The area is a rapidly growing center of manufacturing research and development, showing promise to be a leader in technological innovation and inviting a swarm of new job opportunities. “It’s a newer area showing a lot of potential for growth,” says Realtor Samir Naim of self-owned Naim Real Estate LLC. Naim has over 15 years of experience selling homes across the region. “They’re planning to build new schools and supermarkets. It’s starting to become its own little area.”

21st-century development and lakeside living
Neo City’s rapid growth has triggered an explosion of new construction, allowing buyers to scoop up a brand-new home for as low as $300,000. These new developments, like the massive Kindred community, feature New Traditional homes and contemporary colonials with stucco exteriors, stately entryways and attached garages. Subdivisions like Kindred feature sidewalk-lined streets where locals often enjoy a stroll or bike ride. Between $400,000 and $600,000, buyers will find sprawling ranch styles and multi-story homes with vaulted ceilings and elaborate entrances. The closer to the lake, the higher the price. Along the lake’s shore are million-dollar mansions in Mediterranean styles.

Hopping on the Florida Turnpike
While there’s minimal access to public transportation in Neo City, the community is near busy fairways and interstates. “People here like being close to the Turnpike, which can take you anywhere,” Naim says. The Florida Turnpike traverses the area’s eastern border, leading north toward Orlando. Orlando’s heart is about 25 miles north of Neo City. The Orlando International Airport is about 17 miles away when locals need to catch a flight. The Orlando Health St. Cloud Hospital is about 5 miles away.

Locals enjoy the outdoors by Lake Toho
Only a few miles from several big lakes, it makes sense that locals spend their free time by the water. Many residents relax on the beach, take a dip in the lake or go waterskiing at Lakefront Park, which sits along the shores of East Lake Tohopekaliga. Lakefront Park also features a marina, fishing pier and boat ramp. Locals ride horseback or hike on a nature trail at Ralph V. Chisholm Park. Adventurers get up close with nature at nearby conservation areas, including Twin Oaks and Cherokee Point. Locals enjoy bank fishing and strolls along the boardwalk at Cherokee Point, while horseback riding, paddling and more fishing are enjoyed at Twin Oaks. Neo City is home to Osceola Heritage Park, an indoor and outdoor entertainment center that hosts concerts, rodeos, festivals, professional sporting events, trade shows and conventions.
