Casselberry

Casselberry is a city in Seminole County, Greater Orlando, Florida. == Understand == Casselberry is one of many suburbs on the northeastern side of Orlando. It is between two important suburbs of the city: Sanford to the north, which is the location of the Sanford/Orlando Airport and a lakefront, and Winter Park to the south, the location of Rollins College. Longwood is a suburban community near Casselberry. Like Casselberry, it is primarily residential and those traveling to Longwood will want to stay in one of the larger local suburbs. However Casselberry's few restaurants and parks are within a few miles of Longwood and there is little to separate these two suburbs. == Get in == === By car === US-17/92 is the main route through the Longwood/Casselberry area. It connects the towns to the more central parts of the Orlando metro area to the immediate south. I-4 goes just west of the town. === By train === There are two Sunrail stations in Casselberry's vicinity, one being for Longwood and the other being for Altamonte Springs. Neither are in great locations for visiting Casselberry itself, though, so you'll need to have a car or know someone with a car to connect from either of these stations. 1 Altamonte Springs Sunrail Station, 2741 S Ronald Reagan Blvd. Closest station to Casselberry. A major Lynx bus transit hub, although routes go west, toward Apopka rather than toward Casselberry. (updated Jan 2025) 2 Longwood Sunrail Station, 149 E Church Ave. Provides access to downtown Longwood but is some distance from Casselberry. You will need a car to get from the station to Casselberry, as while there is a Lynx Bus connection at the station, it follows FL-434 toward Oviedo and not to the south.
