- Quality of life Includes various intangible factors which make a city attractive and desirable to live, work or invest in.
New business will be attracted to the city with the most appropriate combination of features and existing business will expand for the same reasons.
Some of the activities that are currently in place to encourage economic development are:
- Support of the new Team Volusia
