Eatonville

Central Florida’s low, lake-dotted terrain defines the setting of Eatonville — residential streets and small civic spaces form a compact community immediately north of Orlando. Incorporated in 1887, Eatonville is widely regarded as one of the United States’ first self-governing all-Black municipalities, a status central to its identity. Writer and anthropologist Zora Neale Hurston spent much of her childhood here, and the town became the setting for her novel Their Eyes Were Watching God. The annual ZORA! Festival continues that association through programmes of African American arts and culture. Continue with other webcams from the area to see how this part of Central Florida connects regionally.
