After living here over 20 years . I can tell you thid place is a H-ll HOLE! The corruption is through the roof. You can't even trust the news or their main news paper they are all liars. The value of homes here have gone down to almost half. Crime is all over the place. Don't do it you will regret moving or visiting this H-ll Hole. Save your stress and money. i can't wait to sell or rent my home so i can get out of here as fastas i can. My grown children are doing the same. They want out.

I have lived in Jacksonville, Florida for the last four years. I love it here. There is plenty of things to do for a family. The beaches and adventure landing are two of the best attractions in the summer. I adore how ivolved the community is and all the options available for kids at community events. The winter months offer plenty of state parks like Fort Clnch or Hanna park. I enjoy the winter because during the day it is usually not that cold by comparision to other areas in the world. Those rare cold days are a good chance to visit one of the museums. I reccomend the Museum of Science and history if you have children with you.

The landing in downtown Jacksonville is a great place to experience the nightlife. Some of the best features in my opinion is the live music on the weekend and the view of the Saint John's river. Mavericks is one of the best clubs at the landing. Along with great clubs the landing offers some wonderful resturants that range from Chicago's Pizza to a little more upscale like Village Bread cafe. No matter what your choice is you can't go wrong.

Shopping is not that great most of the stores are chain stores with very few small shops that offer unique wares. That is the only downside I can think of for Jacksonville. Other then that the outdoor activities put Jacksonville apart from the rest.

My experiences in Jacksonville have always been great. I went to school in St. Augustine, so we would take trips to Jacksonville for special occasions. My favorite attraction in Jacksonville is The Casbah, a-li middle-eastern style hookah lounge and restaurant. They had many different flavors of hookah, and traditional dishes including hummus and warm pita bread. I also liked going to the Murray Hill Theater. They have many different local bands play there, and all tickets are only $10. Some of the bands I have seen there have gone on to achieve some fame, like the Christian band Ten Shekel Shirt.

The other place I used to enjoy going was a Jacksonville nightclub called Plush. It was a gigantic warehouse-like club with great drinks and great music, and plenty of room to dance. There were multi-levels and lots of places to lounge when you didn't feel like dancing. I would suggest Jacksonville to anyone coming to visit Florida.
