Is Disney or Universal bigger?

Universal is much similar to Disneyland in size — so a lot smaller than Disney World, which is 27,000 acres. As detailed by Orlando Park Stop, with the addition of Epic Universe (it's being built on 750 acres), the resort as a whole will nearly double in size. But, just because Universal is smaller isn't a bad thing.
