Kissimmee is a city in Osceola County. Kissimmee pronounced /kiˈsimi/, accent on second syllable is a popular Central Florida tourist destination because of its sunny weather, spring training baseball for major league clubs, and close proximity to Disney World. It is located just south of Orlando in what is commonly referred to as the "Kissimmee-St. Cloud" area, due to the short distance between it and the adjacent city of St. Cloud. It is centered directly between St. Cloud and Disney World on Highway 192 and leads into SR-535, which leads directly into Disney World theme parks. Most tourist activity is centered around Highway 192 also known as Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway and Vine Street in the city of Kissimmee.
