Kissimmee is another great city in the state of Florida like Orlando and Miami. It falls under the Osceola County. Given its close proximity to the city of Orlando, Kissimmee also is a famous tourist location and a rapidly growing economy.
Area wise Kissimmee is one of the smaller cities of the state with an area of only 21.50 square miles. Out of which almost all is covered by land and only 0.68 miles is covered by water. The only water body is the Kissimmee River that flows through this city.
Being a small state the population of Kissimmee is also not much but still recorded at almost 60000 during 2010. Since then population has increased further due to ever increasing tourism industry year after year.

However, in 1883 Allendale was renamed as Kissimmee. Apart from Disston’s drainage factory early settlers started ranching and citrus packing. These served to be the best source of livelihood until the 1970’s when Walt Disney decided to create the Disney Land in Orlando. Since Kissimmee is situated in close proximity of Orlando, tourism industry boomed here too. Although since then the economy of the city suffered many times due to hurricanes but still managed to pull itself up every time.
