For most people who are looking for a place to retire, cost of living is pretty high on their list of priorities.
According to a recent study published by AARP Magazine, Ormond Beach is at the top of the list when it comes to great places to retire on a budget. Not only was Ormond Beach listed first in the article, it was also the only place in Florida to make the cut.

One of the best ways to spend a warm summer afternoon is reading a good book. Since there is no shortage of spectacular summer afternoons here at Plantation Bay, residents have plenty of opportunities to relax and catch up on their reading lists.

One of the most undervalued resources available to Plantation Bay residents is the city of Ormond Beach’s website, which is absolutely loaded with information.
