City of Orlando’s Livability

Why is this Important?

A City’s livability can be compared to the quality of life for its residents. This includes the natural environment and tree canopy, entertainment and recreational activities, economic prosperity, walkability, culture and equity. Combining these factors is a way to create pedestrian friendly “villages” that are accessible and communicate a unique sense of place.

Expanding our Street Trees program and Planting Trees in Public Spaces

The City of Orlando has planted nearly 1,800 new street trees since 2010 and is continuing to grow, providing improved cooling, aesthetics and storm water management for our residents.
