Review of Jacksonville, Florida


a city on the move
Star Rating - 5/7/2007
Jacksonville is growing faster than any city I've ever seen, and with growth comes growing pains-traffic, crime, etc. Much is getting better, though. As people from other parts of the country move in, the city is becoming more diverse and more concerned with culture. It is no longer longer just a big old cow town and is becoming the new Atlanta. Growth will no doube continue as people realize that this area has the lowest hurricane rate of any place in Florida.
