One of the great things about America’s 50-state federal system is that people can vote with their feet in response to different policies. In that sense, California just lost yet another foot-vote referendum.
“The Walt Disney Company is the latest business to plan to move some operations out of California in favor of a lower-taxed state,” Fox Business reports. “Disney will move about 2,000 jobs from its California headquarters to a new campus in Florida.”
In a letter to employees, Disney executive Josh D’Amaro explained that the decision to relocate the jobs is in part due to “Florida’s business-friendly climate.”
“Florida is known for its rich culture of hospitality and active lifestyle as well as a lower cost of living with no state income tax,” D’Amaro also wrote.
While this decision was reportedly made before COVID-19, Disney did criticize the heavy-handed way California’s state government approached the pandemic, with strict shutdowns its executives blasted as “arbitrary.”

Disney moving jobs from California to Lake Nona
The Walt Disney Company plans to relocate about 2000 jobs from California to Orlando's Lake Nona community.FOX 35 Orlando delivers breaking news, live events...
Thank you my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for making us aware that The Walt Disney Company is relocating some 2,000 jobs from California headquarters to a new campus at to Orlando's Lake Nona community in Florida.”
The Walt Disney Company plans to relocate about 2000 jobs from California to Orlando's Lake Nona community.
Disney is in talks with Tavistock Development to create a mixed-use residential project in Lake Nona, Orlando Florida! What does this mean for Laureate Park housing relocations, and the value of Lake Nona as whole?
And with the Lake Nona town center’s Wave Hotel going up, it is clear that this 100-acre entertainment, shopping, and retail destination would be a perfect spot to welcome Disney operations and mixed-used residential living amongst Lake Nona’s already popular Medical City.
With Home values in Lake Nona already skyrocketing due to increased demand, and short supply from new construction builders, this announcement (if confirmed) could be the tipping point to price many buyers out of the area, so time is of the essence for those looking to find their parcel to build on.
Local resident Justin Pekarek in Laureate Park, Lake Nona breaks down the numbers on local resale homes and which builders may be building soon in laureate Park south- as well as other neighborhoods of the Lake Nona area.
For those relocating here, buying or building into the Lake Nona area could prove to be a smart investment as the town center and possibly a Disney-related mixed use residential village gets built nearby.
At this time, plans are unconfirmed, however Lake Nona is in a fitting area for Orlando due to its convenient location. It’s near an airport and other businesses. Of course, it could be an ideal spot for Disney to relocate Walt Disney Company positions from California to Florida.
Orlando Property Advisors specializes in cross-shopping all parts of Orlando such as Lake Nona, Windermere, Dr Phillips, Winter Garden, Winter Park, Downtown Orlando, and College Park. With recent sales in all of these areas, we help you get a feel for them and what type of property makes the most sense for your budget and lifestyle.
