Deltona
Deltona had its beginnings in 1962 when the Mackle brothers purchased 17,203 acres for a planned community with 35,143 lots. Incorporated in 1995, Deltona today is a residential community of nearly 75,000 people and is the largest city in Volusia County. Residents are mainly younger families with children and professionals who commute to work in Orange and Seminole counties.
The city is known for sale and affordable neighborhoods, excellent civic facilities/services, recreational opportunities and a superior quality of life. A booming housing market exists in single-family homes, gated communities, condominiums and rental apartments. Deltona has 17 parks occupying 195 acres, a branch of Daytona Beach Community College and an acute care hospital just outside the city limits.
