Identity
Poinciana was platted decades ago on a scale few Florida communities match, and it has filled in gradually ever since. The village structure, the county split and the distance to employment centres shape almost everything about it.
Osceola / Polk

A very large planned community straddling the Osceola and Polk county line, made up of numbered villages and a growing commercial centre.
