Richlands gives you quiet country living, but allows you to still be just a stone's throw from Jacksonville. Living here is very affordable we live in a subdivision in a 3 bdrm 2 bath house built in 2009 with a large fenced in backyard for only$780 a month, which is very affordable on our low too moderate income, husband is a disabled veteran. The area is primarily military retired and active with camp lejuene being close, but my husband likes that, our street has mostly Marines. We see very little crime, drug activity, gangs,etc. The weather is pretty moderate, the humidity doesn't bother us very much, it rains a good amount so no fear of drought, it doesn't get that cold to us. Utilities are pretty reasonable except for cable. We can shop on base for cheaper groceries otherwise stores are not that far. We have lived in other states including Arizona and SC. and have found this area to have more pros than cons except for the VA, my husband hates it, but I don't think many areas have good VA's anymore.
