Jacksonville, Florida. With its beaches, cultural attractions and a bevy of parks and trails for the most ardent outdoor enthusiasts, Jacksonville or “JAX” as the locals affectionately call it, is a destination for both curious travelers and those searching for “home.” Located in Northeastern Florida, a one-hour drive from the state of Georgia’s southern border, the city covers a lot of ground. With slightly cooler temperatures, Jacksonville represents the “largest city by area in the contiguous United States.” Also known as the River City due to the mighty St. Johns River flowing through the region, JAX is regarded as the “bold new city of the South” as a result of consolidation on October 1, 1968. Due to its location, hurricanes are less likely. It’s also easily accessible from most anywhere around the nation. Jacksonville International Airport has flights to and from several major cities.
