Volusia County runs from the Atlantic Ocean to the St. Johns River, and its land splits the same way. East Volusia is the coastal Daytona Beach and Halifax River area, southeast Volusia centers on New Smyrna Beach, and west Volusia is St. Johns River country anchored by Deltona and DeLand. West Volusia, including Deltona, sits on karst ground with many lakes, and it is home to Blue Spring and De Leon Springs.

What Should You Know About the Volusia County Land Market?

Springs and septic

Florida DEP has springs Basin Management Action Plans (BMAPs) for Volusia Blue Spring and De Leon Springs. DEP’s BMAP tables list enhanced nutrient-reducing septic requirements for new systems in these springs areas, and for existing conventional systems in remediation areas they require an enhanced system, a system achieving at least a 65 percent nitrogen reduction, or a sewer connection within 20 years of BMAP adoption. Before you value a west Volusia lot, check whether it falls inside one of these areas.

Volusia Forever

Volusia Forever is the county’s land conservation program. Voters created it in 2000 with a 0.2 mill property tax for 20 years and renewed it in November 2020 for another 20 years. It buys environmentally sensitive land, water resource protection land and outdoor recreation land. Owners can nominate their own property at any time with a Land Application Form and a willing seller form. If your acreage has high conservation value, that program is worth comparing with a cash offer.

Public land and water

Much of Volusia is already in public hands. The county includes Blue Spring, De Leon Springs, Hontoon Island and Tomoka state parks, Lake George and Tiger Bay state forests, Canaveral National Seashore and part of Lake Woodruff National Wildlife Refuge. Parcels next to these lands often border wetlands, which affects the buildable area.
