St. Cloud Information & Highlights

St. Cloud is a city in Osceola County, Florida, United States. The population was 35,183 at the 2010 census. St. Cloud is very closely associated with the nearby city of Kissimmee and its closeness to Orlando area theme parks, including Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando Resort, and Seaworld. St. Cloud is part of the Orlando-- Kissimmee Metropolitan Statistical Area.

In 1870, Hamilton Disston, a real estate developer of Philadelphia, stopped by St. Cloud with General Henry Shelton Sanford on a fishing journey. General Sanford encouraged Disston's interest in developing Florida. Disston made an agreement with Florida's Internal Improvement Fund and paid $ 1 million to compensate the debt of Civil War and Reconstruction periods. In 1886 -1887, Disston developed the St. Cloud sugarcane plantation. This plantation was called after St. Cloud, Minnesota. However, the plantation was ruined in the course of the Great Freeze of 1894-1895. On June 1, 1915 St. Cloud was included by the Florida Legislature.
