We have a 90-minute Reserve call out, so if you live beyond that, you'll have to come up with a plan to make it in time....holding pattern on RSV days, Crashpad, Starbucks...Etc! I know people that live as far south as Kissimmee-St Cloud, Champion's Gate, Poinciana, & as far North as Flagler Beach. One fella drives from Hilton Head, but Crashpads it here.

I think it's a QOL thing...do you want to do that drive DAILY?? The pitfall of 'home every night' is a daily local commute. I'm :15 from the lot, which is a joy compared to my previous :45 to MCO, then employee bus, hike through TSA, run for the gate & the commute to JFK or DTW. The nice thing about SFB is there is a wide range of decent housing opportunities within a respectable driving distance.
