South Daytona city, FL in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

South Daytona city is a mid-size town in Florida, with 13,322 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #285 of 955 ranked by population — larger than 70% of them. The median age here is 48.1 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. Places under 65,000 residents only appear in the five-year release, never the one-year file, so these values pool sixty months of responses and lag the current year by design.

Households in South Daytona city earn a median of $54,931 a year, 30.1% below the national figure of $78,538 and 20% below the $68,617 median for the 775 Florida cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 17% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in South Daytona city is valued at $210,500, 30.6% below the national figure and 31% below the $305,300 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,287 a month, 8.5% below the national figure, or roughly $15,444 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 28.1% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is within the standard affordability guideline. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.8×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 61.9% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Gross rent folds in the utilities a tenant pays separately, so it is closer to the real monthly outlay than a headline rent figure.

All values below were released by the Census for this exact geography, with no gap-filling on our side. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
