Central Florida · Osceola County
Living in St. Cloud, made simpler.
St. Cloud is an incorporated Osceola County city of about 59,000 residents (2020 census) on the southern shore of East Lake Tohopekaliga, founded in 1909 as a Grand Army of the Republic retirement colony for Union Civil War veterans. Lakefront Park lines the shore with a marina, sand beach, fishing pier and more than two miles of waterfront path, while the Narcoossee Road corridor between the city and Orlando's Lake Nona district has seen sustained large-scale residential construction.
