- Abstract:
The article reports on Orlando, Florida, a microcosm of American exurban sprawl. The Orlando area has grown exponentially, with two million residents living in cookie-cutter houses, shopping in malls and attending growing megachurches as a means of creating community in an increasingly dispersed area. More minorities are moving to the suburbs, changing the stereotyped demographics of the areas.
