With Jacksonville being located in the Northeast corner of the state, you get great weather year round. The area still experiences a slight change in the seasons so it is like living in most other region
s in the country. Originally being from the Mid-west, I loved the leaves changing colors in the fall, but hated scraping ice off of my car in the winter. I found Jacksonville to be the best of both worlds. With many hardwood trees mixing in with the palms the late autumn season prove to be a beautiful blend of fall colors. The best part is, no snow, or ice to shovel or scrape!
