Daytona Here We Come!

[Mom-To-3-Girls]

My hubby and I are wanting to move to Florida to be closer to the city life. Well more city life then whats here in Brunswick. I thought we might move to Daytona because it's near my Grandma's place and my hubby will have the Daytona Speedway right down the street from him. I've been there once in 2000 when i visited my Grams and really don't know first hand whether its a good place to raise a family. Just wondering what your opinions were. What are the pros of living there and what are the cons???? Thanks!

living close to the beach will be busy year round except the winter months. if you dont mind the races, car shows, bikers, audio competitions, spring breakers and just random tourist foolishness in front of your house all year round, that may be the place for you. i am sure some people get used to it.
the cons are the same as the pros.

i dont know much about the public school districts, i have heard for a long time that florida public schools are still among the nations worst..

from what i have seen daytona has been keeping up with all the punishment it gives itself each year. locals used to say how much the shoreline and beaches have deteriorated during the years but that is relative. daytona isnt the cleanest but its not the dirtiest.
