Daytona Beach is one of Florida's most recognizable coastal cities, famous worldwide for the Daytona International Speedway and the iconic hard-packed beach. Beyond the motorsports heritage, Daytona Beach and its surrounding communities — Ormond Beach, Port Orange, New Smyrna Beach — offer an affordable Atlantic Coast lifestyle that's attracting a growing number of permanent residents. The area's real estate market is particularly appealing for buyers priced out of South Florida or Central Florida's coastal markets.
