Lake Mary is a small suburban city located about 19 miles north of Orlando, Florida. As of 2017, roughly 16,474 people live there with 7 public schools, 5 private schools and 1 state college.

Lake Mary connects to I-4, one of the most dangerous highways in America which goes right though Orlando and where most business people commute to work. The city was just a small farm town until around the 1980's when the high school was built with many neighborhood houses also being built. Now most of those old farms have disappeared. The town hall was created in 1946 and is very small with its own small museum.

Generally the schools in Lake Mary are not bad. Lake Mary High School has two main rival schools which are Seminole High School and Lake Brantley High School. Lake Mary's nickname is Fake Mary due to the town being quite tame making their occupants appear fake at times. Lake Mary was once ranked the #4 place to live in America in the August 2007 issue of Money magazine. It was also ranked #38 most boring place to live in Florida by RoadSnacks in 2016.

The biggest problem with Lake Mary is that there is nothing to do. Teens in Lake Mary often hang out at Steak N' Shake, McDonalds, town hall, Greenwood Lakes Park and Target for fun. There is more things to do in Sanford and Orlando which are not too far away. Many people of Lake Mary do drugs and stupid acts for fun.

Overall the city is small and fine but lacks anything to do.
Lake Mary, FL also known as the City of Lakes or the City of Retention Ponds.
