From keeping hogs out to welcoming new residents

The South Florida city of Holly Hill dates back to the 1800s, but it wasn’t until some hungry razorbacks started helping themselves to area gardens that locals got serious about becoming a city. In 1901, a group of residents gathered to deal with the problem by incorporating. Since then, Holly Hill has developed into a thriving community of over 12,000 on the Halifax River. And the pigs, well they are no longer an issue. “It's quite pretty,” says local Valerie Toia, a realtor with Realty Pros Assured. “It's come a long way from what it used to be like, and it's just such a convenient place.”

Riviera is located just across the Halifax River from Daytona Beach.

Wide home selection and condos

The median home price in Holly Hill is $260,000, lower than in nearby Daytona Beach and Ormond Beach. The city has a mix of ranch-style houses, bungalows and Mediterranean-inspired homes. Condos along the Halifax River are also available. Toia says that some homes in the area can be as low as $200,000 and get more expensive closer to the river. The area also attracts many first-time homebuyers and older residents, but fewer families, she says.

Smaller, quaint and colorful; there are plenty of home styles to choose from in Riviera.

Parks and pickleball

Centennial Park spans more than 7 acres and includes a lake. It is a popular nesting spot for bald eagles.

The facility also has an activity center and a 9-hole putting green. Holly Hill is 5 miles from Daytona International Speedway and 3 miles from the coastal attractions of Daytona Beach.
