Day-to-day life in Deltona, FL

Hey folks, I'm retired and The median home value here is around $254,100, which seems about average. The unemployment rate is 2.1%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Deltona sits at 548.5 per 100K. Poverty rate is 9.1%, which is pretty low. Homes are going for about $254,100 on average. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look.

Pros:
- Good schools
- Diverse community
- Easy commute

Cons:
- Limited dining options
- Lack of diversity
- Boring for young people
- Not enough green space
Does this match your experience? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

Used to live on the Downtown side, now on the North side. Completely different vibe. I'm still on the fence after all this time.

We moved here with our family and it exceeded my expectations. Schools in Highland area are tough. Kids love it here.
