Like i said Daytona is not the cheapest or one of the better areas in central Florida. If you like to be on the beach where low wage labor is abundant then more power to you. Where you live will be a deciding factor of an employer giving you a job and how much they offer to pay you. Very few people who are not prostitutes or drug addicts would want to live there even if it's cheap. You can even rent a house these days for about $650 per month because people cant find enough renters.

But lets not pretend there is no work to be had when you have stores and restaurants on every corner. I came up here from Ft Lauderdale and got a part time job in less then a week. Finding a full time career might be a tad difficult with the economy but part time jobs are everywhere. If do get a job there you will find the wages also reflect the type of people who live in that area. I can also fully understand why your mother is unhappy with her living conditions.
