As a resident and real estate agent in Jacksonville for over three decades, I have had the joy of finding and selling homes for people and families across all areas of Jacksonville. From riverfront to oceanfront, there are so many reasons why I call Jacksonville home, and here are just a few of what makes this city such a special place...

  • "It's easier here"

    The the city's new tagline, and as quoted on VisitJacksonville.com, Jacksonville, known as 'Jax', combines relaxation with adventure, offering visitors an easier vacation. Unlike other major tourist destinations with their overcrowded beaches, long lines, and unbearable traffic, Jacksonville, “Jax” as locals call it, offers visitors an easier vacation; one that’s rich with art and culture, history, exciting outdoor adventures, and thrilling sporting events; but at a slower, more relaxed pace. 

    As Florida’s youngest population – and one of the hippest – Jacksonville is the getaway that leaves you feeling refreshed yet accomplished; while there’s plenty to do, there’s never any rush to get it done.

    Here, you can really experience a different side of Florida, combining both relaxation and adventure, and allowing you to choose just how active you want to be. Enjoy our 22 miles of beaches, extensive park system, world-class fishing, historic neighborhoods, vibrant street arts scene, creative coastal cuisine, delicious craft beer, vibrant nightlife and so much more.

  • Low Cost of Living


  • Naval/Military Separation
