 FUN FACTS
   
  How old are we? Did you know that East Central Florida's counties have neither the youth levels of Georgia's rural counties nor the retirement levels of Florida’s southwest coast? Within our region, Osceola County has the highest percentage of people under the age of 17 (26.8%), while Lake and Volusia Counties have the lowest percentage (tied at 20.3%). In contrast, Lake County has the highest percentage of people over 65 years of age (26.4%) while Orange County has the lowest percentage of retirement-aged persons (10.0%).

On the Road with myregion.org

myregion.org is hosting a series of “Targeted Outreach Meetings” throughout Central Florida. Join us in Volusia County next week as we present the preliminary analysis of the seven-county region and the key regional themes that have been identified during the data-collection phase of the project.

“Targeted Outreach Meeting”
Wednesday, November 20, 2002 from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m.
Volusia County Administration Office.
123 Indiana Avenue, Deland, Florida
(Click here for directions to the Volusia County Administration Office)

We hope to reach as many people as possible for this presentation, and we need your help in identifying individuals or organizations that you think should be in the audience. As we begin building a regional framework for the future of Central Florida, it is important that local leaders and citizenry alike be informed and provide feedback throughout the process.

Three subsequent meetings have been scheduled for Lake, Polk and Brevard Counties. Mark your calendars to attend the meeting closest to you.
