But on the county line and my city is higher educated, diverse and a bedroom community for Orlando. Masks are prevalent in most stores and we have a good vaccination rate. 20 miles away in North Lake County it is a different world. Few masks and anti-vaccers abound.

So 15-20 miles can make a world of difference. Most of the ICU cases in my city’s hospital are not from my city.
