DeLand Southwest places you minutes from the collegiate buzz and historic main streets of DeLand while maintaining a relaxed, residential feel within Volusia County. Weekend plans come easy: stroll events hosted by the City of DeLand, catch a performance at the lovingly restored Athens Theatre, or explore campus galleries and lectures at Stetson University. Art lovers gravitate to the Museum of Art – DeLand, and a growing dining scene keeps evenings lively without the big-city hassle.
Outdoorsy residents can paddle quiet backwaters at Hontoon Island State Park or spot winter manatees at Blue Spring State Park in nearby Orange City. Families appreciate access to Volusia County Schools, with neighborhood routes to Southwestern Middle and DeLand High, plus youth sports and recreation spread across city parks. Commuting is straightforward via SR‑44, US‑17/92, and I‑4, with beaches and job centers an easy drive, while housing options range from modest mid‑century bungalows to updated homes on leafy lots.
Whether you’re upsizing, rightsizing, or just relocating, DeLand Southwest balances convenience, culture, and natural Florida beauty.
