Area Profile
In the past ten years, the city of Oviedo and its surrounding area, which together constitute the Oviedo High School attendance zone, have dramatically changed from a primarily agrarian support community of approximately 5,000 people to a full service, suburban community of nearly 50,000.
Some of the most prominent cultural and commercial influences upon this community include post-secondary institutions, research industries, major tourist attractions and film production agencies. Amongst the post-secondary educational institutions considered “local” by the community are Seminole and Valencia community colleges, Rollins College, the University of Central Florida, and Stetson University.
