Jacksonville is one of the fastest growing
cities in the Sun Belt and offers a wide variety of neighborhoods, from old, established
neighborhoods to brand new subdivisions and planned communities. From the mighty St.
Johns, Florida's longest river, to the many creeks that flow into it, to the Atlantic
Ocean, just minutes away from downtown, Jacksonville is framed by water. This proximity to
water coupled with the mild climate favors recreational activites year round.
Whatever your business or pleasure: golf, tennis, boating, fishing, surfing, theater,
museums, history, or shopping, you can enjoy it all in Jacksonville.
Located at the crossroads of two transcontinental highways, Jacksonville continues to make
history as one of the nation's largest cities in land area, a major port city, financial
center, site of Navy bases, and home of the NFL Jacksonville Jaguars, a Mayo Clinic
medical center, Jacksonville Zoological Gardens, beautiful beaches, numerous waterways,
and more than one million residents.
Known as the 'River City' Jacksonville, stands proudly on the St. John's.
On May 1, 1562 French Huguenots began a colony named Fort Caroline. Within 3 years,
the small French riverbank settlement would be destroyed by Spanish forces from the
military garrison at St. Augustine. In years to come Spain, Great Britain and local
Timucaua Indians fought for control of this area, making Jacksonville the first 'settled'
part of the USA.
