Volusia County Summary

Volusia County, Florida is located in the east-central part of the state, along the Atlantic Coast. It is bordered by Flagler, Putnam, and Brevard counties to the north, Seminole County to the west, and the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The county seat is DeLand, and the largest city is Daytona Beach. The county is home to a population of approximately 517,000 people, making it the sixth most populous county in Florida.

History

Volusia County was created in 1854 from a portion of Mosquito County, which was later renamed Orange County. The county was named after the Volusia tribe, a Native American tribe that lived in the area. The county was originally part of the St. Johns River region, and was home to many Seminole and Creek Indians.
In the late 19th century, the county began to develop as a tourist destination, with the establishment of the Daytona Beach Hotel in 1876. The hotel was the first of its kind in the area, and it attracted many visitors from the North.
