Disney’s Utopia is an ideal town in Florida. In1996 so many people wanted to move there because: - the town has been a dream destination for some and a symbol of corporate power.- Many point to the cleanliness of the streets.- heavy construction that will continue for quite a while and the near-perfect architecture. - People can live their lives in a very nice place.- Everything built so far is within walking distance to business and recreational facilities.
