Fishing town near the beach
The marshes, wildlife and fishing operations of Oak Hill give it the feel of a community removed from the Florida coast. But this low-key town in southern Volusia County sits along the Indian River, 20 minutes away from New Smyrna Beach. Historically a center of citrus farming and commercial fishing, today Oak Hill is a bedroom community with friendly neighbors who arrive and never want to leave.

Being immersed in the outdoors
Oak Hill got its name from its heavy population of oak trees draped with Spanish moss, according to the Southeast Volusia Chamber of Commerce. Nature is an important part of life in the so-called “fishing capital of the world.” Redfish and snook abound here, but activities like crabbing and dip net shrimping are also popular. Locals launch kayaks into Mosquito Lagoon, where fishermen also take people out on charter boats. Kids can enjoy the playground at Mary DeWees Park, which also has baseball fields, and Scottsmoor Landing is a popular place to cast a line from the dock.
Oak Hill may be on the coast, but it’s on the bay side, west of barrier islands. On the nearby island is Mary McLeod Bethune Beach Park, a 6-acre sandy area with a beautiful shoreline, athletic courts and benches to take in breathtaking views of the beach.

Low-key neighborhoods
Residential parts of Oak Hill have a rural feel. Houses are typically one-story, and they’re separated from each other by large lots of land. Many houses were built in the last 20 years, including stucco houses and two-level homes with screened-in pools. The town has a wide range of prices, from $90,000 to $790,000. “All the neighbors are super friendly and will start conversations when they see you,” Kim Laney, resident and Realtor with Florida Realty Investments says. “I see most people when I’m walking my dog.”
Many Oak Hill homes can enjoy fishing and boating right off their private docks.
Well-regarded charter school
Kids in Oak Hill can attend Volusia County Schools. The district has a B rating from Niche and teaches about 63,000 students. Children are assigned to Indian River Elementary School (rated B-minus), New Smyrna Beach Middle School (rated B-minus) and New Smyrna Beach High School (rated B).

The well-regarded Burns Science and Technology Charter School has a B-plus rating from Niche and a curriculum centered around project-based learning, as well as science, engineering, arts, technology and math. The school teaches kids in kindergarten through 12th grade. “My husband and I have said for years that we wished we would’ve moved here sooner when our kids were school-aged,” says Laney.
