very good schools - 10/18/2013

Education is important to this area as many of the children have parents that are over educated for the area only because they work (or used to work) on the space program. In general the schools here are very good.

Income - 7/2/2013

I moved here from upstate NY where I was making $16/hr... that was in 1998. We sold our house and did some traveling then ended up here in Titusville in 2004. There are jobs down here, but they are all very low paying jobs. Many people employers here think that a $9 to $10 per hour job is making good money. The rent for a single bedroom apartment here runs around $800 to $1200 a month, add vehicle costs, electric bills, food, etc... I ended up starting my own business here due to the fact that I can make triple of what any employer would pay. But, now with the space center down, other businesses closing their doors, available housing has been left to foreclosures, the Chamber of Commerce here is pathetic, there's not much left. Many businesses here are trying to under cut the competition in order to make ends meet which hurts establishing companies.

Hot and humid. The loss of the shuttle program has caused for thousands of nice homes to be for sale at ultra inexpensive prices. Good grocery shopping.

One year living it Titusville - 10/27/2011

We moved here from Ohio and found it to be a really nice place to live. We do not have a lot of chain stores/restaurants but if we want them they are 20-40 min away......in the higher crime areas and heavy traffic! We found a lovely home in a great neighboorhood and love living the Florida life. We believe the economy will rebound and T-Town will once again hit the top with a lot of high tech people. Great churchs and caring people. We are self employed and over 60.

Great place to raise kids - 2/17/2008

So many things make me grateful that we moved here in 1989: community values, active church attendance, public schools that prepared our children well for top universities, low traffic, convenient parking, great beaches, open green areas, boating on the intracoastal waterway ... 84 degrees at the beach on 17 February. My spouse and I travel a lot on business, and Titusville has been our haven. We plan to retire here.

If you aren't retired, Titusville isn't the town f - 8/9/2007

In a nutshell, this place is just awful. I moved here three years ago from a short stint in Atlanta, GA and living ten years in Pinellas County, on the gulf side of Florida. This place is just horrible. There are no jobs, no growth, no restaurants, the schools are deplorable. It's just a gaping hole of tremendous suck. Unless you are retired and ready to die, this is not the place for growing families or people who have to work to make a living.

Titusville is a growing city with so much potential. The cost of living is still very low and a great financial economy exists only 25 minutes West in Orlando, 35 minutes South in Melborne and 45 minutes North in Daytona

Titusville, FL - The good the bad and the ugly - 8/25/2006

I've lived here for 23 years and it's a great place to have babies and raise them, because though the population is around 40K, the stores are clean and there isn't much traffic. The whole town is mostly all about the schools and churches and perhaps that is why the area has remarkably respectful and responsible teenagers. If you like architecture look the other way. Except for six square blocks in the historic area around old town, most developed areas look like a giant barfed next to the Intracoastal waterway...and there was Titusville. Oh well, I suppose the Indian River Lagoon IS nice and the incredibly pristine, undeveloped seashore, fifteen minutes through the wildlife refuge Is awesome. Watching shuttle launches from your backyard ain't too bad either.
