Overall safety score

“Go with care. Midtown Daytona holds meaningful African-American heritage centered around Bethune-Cookman University, but the area struggles with persistent violent and property crime. Daytime visits to campus landmarks and historic sites are fine with ordinary vigilance, but lingering after dark or wandering residential side streets is not recommended.”
— Gogo, on Midtown Daytona

About the area

Historic & CulturalCollege CampusSocioeconomically ChallengedUrban Residential

Midtown Daytona is a historic, predominantly residential urban neighborhood situated just west of downtown Daytona Beach, anchored by the Bethune-Cookman University campus. While rich in cultural legacy and community identity, the neighborhood faces elevated poverty, aging infrastructure, and higher-than-average crime rates.

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
