Jacksonville Overview

One of the nation’s most resilient and desirable multi-family markets. Jacksonville is the largest and the most populous city in Florida and the thirteenth most populous in the United States. Jacksonville is located in the Coast region of northeast Florida. It is centered on the banks of the St. Johns River, about 25 miles south of the Florida/Georgia border and approximately 340 miles north of Miami.

Jacksonville has a diverse economic base and is expanding at a rapid pace. Bloomberg Wealth recently listed Jacksonville, Florida, as one of the top 10 cities for population growth in 2020. The city economy is balanced among distribution, biomedical technology, finance, information services, manufacturing, and other industries. The city is a transportation hub, with a deep-water port that ranks with New York as the nation’s top two vehicle handling ports. The United States Navy is a major contributor to Jacksonville’s economy and workforce. The area’s four navy bases employ more than 56,000 and have a combined annual payroll of $1.59 billion. Bloomberg reports that over 19,000 employees of the world’s top Wall Street Firms – such as Bank of America, Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase, and Wells Fargo – have a presence in Jacksonville. Jacksonville is also home to one of only three Mayo clinics in the country. Numerous universities, colleges, and community colleges in the area contribute to a skilled workforce.

The region boasts a lower-than-average commute time, low cost of living, lack of state income taxes, picturesque river, professional sports year-round sunshine, and beach access – making Jacksonville an outstanding real estate investment market.
