"South Jax Beach-Short Commute to Mayport"

We live in South Jacksonville Beach. We love this area of Jacksonville because we are 20-25 minutes from Mayport and very close to JTB (Butler BLVD) which is a main highway and takes you to 95 and 295. You can take back roads to base and it's an easy commute. We live right behind a huge park, "South Beach Park." It's a great place for kids to play, to work out, play tennis, walk the dog, picnic, etc. We are 15 minutes from "The Town Center" and of course the main attraction, the beach, is just a few blocks. Target, Publix, Bed Bath&Beyond, Pier1 and World Market are just a few blocks as well. We are considered Duval county still so the schools are not as great as St. Johns.We are 1 mile from St. JOhns/Ponte Vedra Beach.

Pros Cons
  1. Close to the beach
  2. Close to major highways
  3. Close to base
  4. 15 minutes to major shopping
  1. Schools aren't so great

Price: $250-$400k

  • Pet Friendly: Yes
  • Recommended: Yes
  • Recommendations: If stationed at Mayport, I would recommend Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach, Jacksonville Beach (South Jax Beach is more family friendly), anywhere in Southside, great neighborhoods off San Pablo, Hodges and Kernan. I would not recommend ever living in Mayport unless you are on base.
  • Appearance: neighborhood parks,well manicured with grass cut,common areas maintained
