Hey! About to move to Jacksonville and I'm not going to have time to really vet a lot of apartments before I get there. Is there a good area to live in or even buildings you can recommend?

Southside near Deerwood/Town Center is pretty good in my experience- lots to do and very easy to get to the rest of the area

Don't live on the Westside. The roads are awful and it feels like the city doesn't care about this side of the city at all.

What are you looking for? I live in Southside and w morning traffic it's ~15min to downtown (10min on weekends), i can get to beach in 20min on the weekends, near town center and tinseltown for dining/shopping, but not necessarily super trendy. If you want to live in a trendier area where you can walk to bars then you're best in riverside or closer to the beach

Southside/ Tinseltown area is probably the most central to everything. It’s also relatively calm and close to the best shopping.

Avoid the Jax University University area if you can. There are couple of good neighborhoods in Arlington but you will be kind of far away from restaurants, Downtown and all the fun spots. I live in riverside and it’s honestly the best. I’m so close to literally everything. Avondale and San Marco are good too. Ortega is good for families and is quiet.

St.John’s town center is always nice. Loves there for 3 years. Your pretty much central to everything you need. Beach 15, downtown 20, and Durbin shops 20. It’s not the cheapest that’s for sure.

The beaches are an awesome place to live !

Love living in riverside or San Marco- plenty of restaurants within walking distance here

Heard mandarin is a good area

Moved to Mandarin 5 months ago from Denver, very nice area but not many apartments

Town center

Riverside / San Marco / Brooklyn / urban core in general. Steer clear of southside, Tinseltown, town center unless you enjoy suburbia hell
