Known as the “edge city” of popular Orlando, Deltona is considered probably second only to Orlando itself if you’re looking to remain close to the famous theme parks in Walt Disney World.  The city actually earns its name from its neighbors Daytona Beach and Deland (hence the “Del- and “-tona”) and is also recognized as the home of the famous Twiggy the Water-Skiing Squirrel act.  Deltona real estate offers a great array of Deltona homes, especially single family homes.  The city’s proximity to the Orlando theme parks has made it very popular among families.
