>HAINES CITY, Fla. (AP) — Not long ago, Polk County’s biggest draw was citrus instead of people. Located between Tampa and Orlando, Florida’s citrus capital produces more boxes of citrus than any other county in the state and has devoted tens of thousands of acres to growing millions of trees.
>But last year, [more people moved to the county](https://apnews.com/article/florida-population-growth-census-immigration-22a1d46ad275f27b4cbf45611aea2760) than to any other in the United States, almost 30,000.
>Bulldozed citrus groves in recent years made way for housing and big box stores that could one day merge the two metropolitan areas into what has half-jokingly been dubbed, “Orlampa.”
Orlampa? LOL because I do enjoy a good portmanteau.
BTW, if you have friends who are in a romantic relationship and their names are Hilary and Jack, may I suggest you call them HIJACK? 😉
