Allandale offers many of Florida's top amenities in Port Orange
Bordering the Halifax River on its east side, Port Orange's Allandale neighborhood offers many of the amenities Florida is known for. With the beach and one of the most famous racetracks in the world just a short drive away, locals have an array of recreation at their fingertips. With much of Allandale in a flood zone, the neighborhood isn't immune to considerable storm damage. But for the most part, Allandale's river access and proximity to various attractions make it a community worth considering just 6 miles south of Daytona Beach.
Allandale is located along the banks of the Halifax River in Port Orange.
Many Allandale homes feature docks along the banks of the river.

Minutes away from the airport and Interstate 95
Public transportation options are limited in Allandale, but the Votran bus features several stops along Ridgewood Avenue on the east side, while Daytona Beach International Airport sits just 9 miles north of the neighborhood.

Allandale residents frequent First Turn, especially during racing season
Though not considered a foodie's paradise, several independent eateries are revered by Allandale locals. First Turn on South Ridgewood Avenue features a racing theme with NASCAR memorabilia throughout the eatery. Daytona International Speedway is only a 20-minute drive north of Allandale, and if locals can't attend the Daytona 500 in person, there's a good chance they'll be watching at First Turn. The Boat Bar is another neighborhood favorite, unmistakable for its boat-like structure at the corner of Ridgewood and Niver. To make a home-cooked meal, residents usually gather ingredients from Winn-Dixie or Publix, while additional big-box retailers can be found at Park Place Plaza 2 miles west.

Spruce Creek Park offers picturesque views of the wetlands
Allandale residents don't need to travel far to reach outdoor recreation. Buschman Park sits less than a mile west of the neighborhood and serves as a top spot for wildlife encounters. The 30-acre park features forested and wetland habitats, drawing a wide range of animals — including gators. Spruce Creek Park is another top destination for lovers of the outdoors. Just 2 miles south of Allandale, the 23-acre park features over 3 miles of nature trails along with an observation deck. And, of course, locals are also only a 2-mile drive from the oceanfront in Daytona Beach Shores.

Smaller established homes sit alongside newer Craftsman-style builds
Homebuyers will find a variety of different styles along Allandale's gridded layout. Manufactured homes are common throughout the neighborhood, though small bungalows and ranch-style dwellings stand out as well. Newer, larger builds with Craftsman elements have also taken root along Pineland Avenue and Taylor Avenue. Many homes price between $100,000 and $200,000, though larger properties can sell for more than $300,000. Homes with river access, meanwhile, can top out closer to $800,000. With an average sale price of roughly $180,000, Allandale is considerably more affordable than some of its neighboring communities. "There's good accessibility for people moving from the north into this corridor," says local Realtor Kip Ripper of Watson Realty Corp., who has over 40 years of experience in real estate. "It's affordable because the builders have the money to offer better interest rates."

Various events are held at Daytona International Speedway
Given its proximity to Daytona International Speedway, it should come as no shock that the Daytona 500, the NASCAR Cup Series' season opener, is one of the biggest events of the year. Welcome to Rockville, a four-day music festival featuring some of the world's top rock and metal bands, is also held at the speedway after once being held annually in Jacksonville. "There are all kinds of different sports races from January to March," Ripper says. "All of that brings a lot of people here. People are visiting the area more and more. Now they're moving just as much."

Locals should be wary of hurricanes
Major storms pose a serious threat to Allandale. Much of its east side is prone to flooding from the Halifax River, and while hurricanes aren't nearly as common around the Daytona Beach area as they are in South Florida, they have impacted the region in the past. As recently as 2022, the area felt the wrath of two hurricanes — Ian and Nicole — within the span of three months.
Allandale residents love the life on the waters of the Halifax.
