Welcome to Jacksonville! We say that
Jacksonville offers all the "best" of
Florida, and then add the "even better."
We have the only north-flowing river in the Western
Hemisphere. The St. John's River is as much as three
miles wide in parts of Jacksonville, and as a
deep-water port is home to boats ranging from ocean
liners and aircraft carriers to canoes and
windsurfers. Our ocean beaches are uncrowded and
peaceful. Our people are courteous and friendly.
We call Jacksonville, Florida's Business City.
It is a regional insurance and banking center, as
well as home to a number of major corporations.
Jacksonville is in the midst of economic and
cultural growth complimented by increased community
involvement. Each year many companies relocate to
Jacksonville, with one of the major reasons being
the affordable and pleasant lifestyle that their
employees can find here.
It's no secret that metropolitan Jacksonville is one of the nation's fastest growing cities. Jacksonville is named the nation's number-one city for relocating and expanding companies by Expansion Management Magazine three times. Here you will find an efficient local government, a workforce 700,000 strong, no state income tax and no snow days.
Greater Jacksonville is well known for its great
climate and great communities. The beaches
throughout the Jacksonville area's coastline have
created some of the best communities in the country.
Because
of the mild climate, the beaches, and the 75 miles
of water located within the city limits,
Jacksonvillians spend a great deal of time
outdoors. We are a sports minded city, in both
spectator and participatory sports.
Jacksonville is the perfect spot
for year-round outdoor activities. Whether you like
golf, fishing, watersports, surfing, boating,
relaxing at the beach, tennis, or spectator sports
such as Jaguar football games; University of Florida
sports, Florida state sports, and other universities
are a short drive away.
