  What it’s like to live in Ortona Park

  Ortona Park features mid-century homes with larger yards in western Daytona Beach. Rental properties typically include more outdoor space and square footage than similarly priced options closer to the beach. While the neighborhood provides good access to both Daytona International Speedway and shopping along International Speedway Boulevard, the location requires a 15-20 minute drive to reach actual beaches. Particularly appealing to NASCAR employees and racing enthusiasts who prefer residential tranquility over tourist-heavy beachfront areas.
