The good and bad of living in Daytona Beach

So, Military spouse here. Median household income is $50,130, which feels on the lower side for the area. Rent is about $1,239/month for a decent place. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Does this match your experience? Thanks for reading.

Worst things about Daytona Beach nobody talks about
