That area is not bad. I do not like Goldenrod further down south of the 408 as much, it gets kind of dumpy. Like you said there is a Target and Kmart. There are a lot of restaurants by the corner of Semoran and University. If you get a Costco membership, there is one by Forsyth and you could save money buying things in bulk. There is a WalMart by Colonial and Rouse.

I would personally stay away from Forsythe and the Wal-Mart on Colonial/Rouse Rd., especially if you are a woman. It aint real safe in those areas, and I dont let my wife shop there, especially at night.
