Anyone ever have a client in Jacksonville, FL? How is the city / area?

JAX is growing rapidly; tons of logistics, fintech, financial services and insurance. Decent health / life sciences industry too. A number of large orgs have their back offices HQ here. That being said, it's not the most progressive city and a lot of long term locals lament the changes that bigger business brings. Labor market is very, very tight so it's a great place to live as an employee. COL is relatively low for a city of this size. DM if you want more insight into any of the above.

If you are a golfer bring your clubs. If you like football go to a Jaguars game. Largest city in the US by land mass.

I had a client in Jax for 8 months and really liked the location, especially in the winter. The airport / rental car situation is pretty low stress. Surprisingly good restaurant options and hotels. It’s nice to be by the beach when you can

I found it pretty boring but that was a few years ago... maybe bars close after 10 these days

boring. terrible city, no real life. easy airport though....

I live in Jax. It’s changed a lot in the last few years and there are a lot of good restaurants/ bars. I came from DC and it’s obviously not on the same level as DC, but I was impressed. The beach is nice but I recommend going north to Atlantic and not by the Jax beach pier. Unless you’re a surfer - then the pier is where you want to be.
