Pine Hills is a census-designated place , an unincorporated area in Orange County , Florida , United States , and a neighborhood in Orlando, Florida . The population was 41,764 at the 2000 census. Pine Hills comprises the area from just west of Hiawasse Rd east to the Orlando city limits and from Clarcona-Ocoee Rd south to SR 408 (East-West Expressway). The area that would become Pine Hills was established in the early 1950's with the first subdivisions built along the newly constructed Pine Hills Rd north of Colonial Dr. (SR 50) and was one of the first suburbs of Orlando. It gradually grew to serve as a bedroom community for the blue-collar employees of Martin-Marietta (now, Lockheed-Martin ) and was once primarily comprised of upper-middle class families. Pine Hills was complete with (at the time in the 1950's) a modern shopping mall and country club. The shopping mall still stands as the Pine Hills Marketplace, now a strip-mall with an AutoZone and discount stores. The country club was closed and apartment complexes were built on the site in the 1990's. During the 1980's an effort was made by the City of Orlando to incorporate Pine Hills. The long time homeowners rejected this measure fearing larger taxes and little representation. During this time, as Orlando's growth absorbed Pine Hills, many other original families left Pine Hills and moved into newer and relatively safer neighborhoods in nearby Ocoee , Winter Garden and MetroWest. Pine Hills fell into a state of decline during the 1990's as much of the housing became low rent and government subsidised, resulting in higher crime and little representation from the local government. Pine Hills now suffers from high unemployment and crime. Many homeowners now embrace the idea of Orlando annexing Pine Hills, arguing the potential benefits are better police protection and city beautification services. However, given the area's reputation of high-crime and undesirable image, annexation does not appear likely in the near future. Despite its shortcomings, Pine Hills could arguably be considered the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in Orlando. Pine Hills has a sizeable Caribbean population including Haitians , Jamaicans , and Puerto Ricans ; and a large Asian population of Vietnamese , Koreans , and Cambodians . Along Pine Hills Rd are located many immigration offices, Caribbean & Asian restaurants, and West Indian grocery stores. To reflect the growing ethnic diversity in Pine Hills, developers are building another "Chinatown" for Orlando along West Colonial Dr. with Asian-themed grocery stores, restaurants, and retail outlets.
