Kissimmee is actually pretty close to Orlando, it's about 20 miles south, so it's definitely doable for daily travel or quick theme park visits. Depending on traffic, the drive usually takes around 30-40 minutes, which isn't bad at all. I've got friends who live in Kissimmee and commute to Orlando for work or to visit the theme parks, and they say it's a breeze. You can also consider using public transportation or ride-sharing services if you don't feel like driving. Overall, Kissimmee is a great option if you're looking for a more affordable place to stay that's still close to all the Orlando action.
