In my travels today....

Bridgeport at Lake Sumter... Limit is 15 on the main road in.

A little further up in Winifred...Kingston road is 25 and none of the side streets that feed off of it have signs so I guess they inherit the 25.

Cross 466 to Polo Ridge and Oak forest Dr ... Limit is 25 with no signs on the cross streets.

So, I assume that somewhere from Bridgeport south they determined that neighborhoods should be 15 and not 25. Same streets, same flows, wonder why the difference.

I'm sure there are highway and road design standards that dictate speed for conditions. Same conditions in two different areas... One is 25 the other 15. How come???? Very inconsistent.
