Yes that’s everywhere but new here in Duval ( lifer) the few times someone has walked up to me and wanted me to by there jewelry was foreigners ! Don’t forget to say we have low laying areas for flooding , and not nice neighborhoods in more areas !
Reminder of Hurricane season just be aware of the flood zones. Other than that just mind your business and don't go to block parties certain parks to avoid being innocent by stander. I lived there 5 yrs straight and made it out the trenches. Northside is warzone 💥
Please keep in mind the new builders are a lot on marsh lands and it's not good at all. We were quiet in the suburbs. You had buffer with the trees. It kept us safe from the storms and the heat and pollution. The pollution is getting worse fast. So if you have asthma or severe allergies this isn't good. Talk to people who have been here their whole lives like my mom and myself. We lived here when it was cowford, it goes back a few hundred years. I would love for this realtor to reach out to me. Please have a mold check when you consider buying here. It's getting worse. We are number 2 out of the states and high up in the cities list for the state. But living on the water is not good anymore. Same with the ocean. Many people won't get insurance for their homes.
I’m coming near OP. I came in Summer 2021 but went back to my hometown, to be honest it was to avoid losing a car that I left at my parents’ that I have a sentimental attachment to - I had the engine apart and they might have towed it away. After dealing with an addiction that I still give in to time to time, I am getting closer to having that vehicle running, getting my license, then I did buy a second vehicle too that’s already running. I could get all of those running and save up some cash then I can make the move, maybe even by the end of January or before.
Check the Flood and Evacuation Zone maps for the neighborhood you want to move to. I live about a half mile from the St. Johns river but I am not in an evacuation zone so I will probably be safe from flooding from hurricanes
Oh please! This guy is exaggerating everything. I lived there for 3 yrs and never had a problem. If you don't associate yourself with garbage then your won't have those issues.
Hey bro, the video is for sure exaggerated, lived in jax most my life, my most favorite place on earth. Maybe because it’s home but I just can’t seem to find how this guy got the ideas he has, I don’t believe he lives there, he doesn’t act like it and if he does he lives in Arlington or downtown area. Not great areas, every city has their bad areas. Jacksonville is amazing.
I moved to the big city to get away from the crowd (south Florida). I LOVE DUVAL! Been here 9 years - ya learn where to go and not to go. Big city living comes with it's pluses and minuses, but JAX in general has all that you could want (except snow!). Great video. :)
Thanks for sharing we will be a retired couple in about 4 years and were considering a part-time snowbird condo/ townhouse community in Florida to get away from the cold North East Coast winters and for tax purposes. Since it will not be our primary home l thought Orlando would be a good choice for part-time rental but someone mentioned Jacksonville because of the cheaper real estate, NFL sports and the ability to join a beach club. I know nothing about Jacksonville we have never visited and your videos have been helpful. Wishing you success in the New Year.
I was there for like 3 weeks Summer 2021 (been itching like mad to go back ever since, getting close now!) and I had two scam experiences. One was a Facebook job and the contractor never paid me (he was painting for a homeowner and I was his helper), the other was a risk I didn’t wanna take - at the Olive Garden near Blanding and Collins there was a group of guys and one asked me to use my phone. There’s a good risk especially in 2021 that that was a theft attempt. Glad I didn’t go “well I better be kind and let them steal it anyways” Not sure what God would want me to do there but I know the possession is of nothing.
Here in Florida, what insurance company do you recommend? There’s got to be honest ones out there👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 what people need is a good honest home insurance company👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I just interviewed for a job in jax, but after watching this video, I think I'll just turn it down. Great video. Not so great of a city to live in for me.
Look up the disputes over melcon farm. That's where they are building and shouldn't be. But i hope we get good people. This builder is crooked. I think you also need to look into building codes. They haven't updated them here. They're still using wood. We get mold bad.
I live in orlando and i want to move to jacksonville can you tell me about aptment in jacksonville what neigborhood is good to move to you dont tell what neigborhood😊
Jacksonville fl driving sucks they like tailgating watch out. Town center is we’re to be. 103rd on west side and Jackson height s is the hood plus Arlington also.
I was hoping you would've touched on how awful the public transit system is here. I encourage constant jta bashing. (with the hope of embarrassing them to improve) It hasn't worked yet; jta has no shame! Please help by criticizing jta as often as possible.
Depends on what you are willing to spend My area is great. The wilderness on marbon rd is nice and relax. We aren't a rough area. But I'm in the suburbs. South Duval close to st. Augustine
Fleming island is very nice and safe plus Publix and everything u need is very close and Fleming high and thunderbolt elementary are very nice schools and a middle school will be built soon. There’s also a Baptist clay that has just been built
Hello Artie, can you send a website so I can contact you. I am moving back to Jax in December. I wanna talk about my possibilities on buying a house, or a Townhouse.....
Hello thanks for watching and supporting my channel. arthurcox.1stclassre.com/ 904-860-4799 please inbox me your email and I will set you up on a home search as well.
Yes, you need to be here. Florida is not a receptacle state. You need to take the real estate courses and they used to have listings of places where you can get your classes on the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Also some real estate offices can also guide you if you have a particular office you would like to work with. Hope this helps. good luck. ~Shell
Not cheap jea and water lot rentals rhe mayor and the candle let them do what they want to do Not a good place to come to visit and leave all the talk Not true run for your life water and light are crazy when our president going to step in give a blank check to us
Please don't over build my home town. We already have a jerk who managed to squeeze a neighborhood in between two that don't have the space. Now we have lost the nature and the tree buffers. The guy even cut out the 20ft buffer he promised. And it's part wetland. Jacksonville does have sink holes too. Trees protect us from the hurricanes by the way

North side is cool just don’t go to Dunn ave or Lem turner road that the worse. Orange park has mad traffic

Great tips! Im coming to Orange Park 2023! Cant wait!
Same here!

Thanks for watching! Orange park is a solid area. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns about the area….
Did you make the move yet
@@livinginjacksonvilleflorid8764 not yet. But March 2024.. can't wait

What is good neighborhood
Good video. Strongly considering moving to Jacksonville by may 2023 for work.

Hey thanks for watching! I can definitely help out when moving to Jax or surrounding areas…
Fun fact: Jacksonville is the biggest city in the United States
I moved to the big city to get away from the crowd (south Florida). I LOVE DUVAL! Been here 9 years - ya learn where to go and not to go. Big city living comes with it's pluses and minuses, but JAX in general has all that you could want (except snow!). Great video. :)
I prefer Hallandale beach Florida beautiful city good beaches and restaurants and growing businesses and communities, and good nightlife.
Thanks for the info about rentals being a good opportunity for buyers in JAX looking in area for March/April 2024

Hannah park is filled a lot alligator 🐊 just like the St. John’s river and watch with huge banana splder and a lot 🐍
Something needs to be done legally to these insurance companies that are taking the money and running....

Yes smart move. Come on back things are changing for the better….. let me know and can grab lunch coffee I can help you navigate the area etc…..
Good plan

Great video. Thank you 💗
This is very useful. Thank you 🙏
You are very welcome!! Thanks for the support!

Don't move onto the river. That area floods bad
Look up the disputes over melcon farm. That's where they are building and shouldn't be. But i hope we get good people. This builder is crooked. I think you also need to look into building codes. They haven't updated them here. They're still using wood. We get mold bad.
I've lived here my whole life and my mom is a local too
Is Jacksonville really a scary place to live? I don't want to be near crime.
I live in orlando and i want to move to jacksonville can you tell me about aptment in jacksonville what neigborhood is good to move to you dont tell what neigborhood😊
So many great neighborhoods in Jax. Give me a call at 904-860-4799 and I will get you dialed in…..
Great work.
As someone who lives in Jacksonville
Well I'm moving there in the car with my mom been driving for a day know gonna hit it today
How can it be kid friendly when they can’t move around by themselves on a bike or a bus?
Cedar oil drizzled around anywhere you think snakes are, will keep them out...even sprayed over grass edges and wood chippings...tell ya wife ..😆
Thanks anything to keep the snakes away for sure. Thanks for watching and your support.
Too bad that getting rid of the cockroaches and palmetto bugs isn't that easy. 😉
Will it keep flying roaches away too? I don't want to move there just for that alone.
Jacksonville fl driving sucks they like tailgating watch out. Town center is we’re to be. 103rd on west side and Jackson height s is the hood plus
Arlington also.
Thank you.
Jacksonville has also taken a direct hit in the late 60s. Look into what made those houses stay good. Cinder block houses work best
Is this for 2022 or 2023? The title says 2023 but you stated 2022. Just wondering, thank you for all the information!
The snakes aren't as bad. South FL is worse. We are closer to GA wildlife where we still have trees
I was hoping you would've touched on how awful the public transit system is here. I encourage constant jta bashing. (with the hope of embarrassing them to improve) It hasn't worked yet; jta has no shame! Please help by criticizing jta as often as possible.
What is the best neighbor to move to
I’m trying to talk my family into moving but my husband is saying it’s dangerous and he don’t want to
Depends on what you are willing to spend
My area is great. The wilderness on marbon rd is nice and relax. We aren't a rough area. But I'm in the suburbs. South Duval close to st. Augustine
Fleming island is very nice
Fleming island is very nice and safe plus Publix and everything u need is very close and Fleming high and thunderbolt elementary are very nice schools and a middle school will be built soon. There’s also a Baptist clay that has just been built
The diversity is getting better here though. That's a plus
What in the hell does that even mean?

Who would hire you?
Great video. We moved to Seattle in 2009 from JAX but just learned we are headed back in February. Couldn’t be happier.
We're in the Seattle area I am a Seattle native. We're casually looking at Florida
Seattle sucks
RedCedar same
I looking to relocate rent to Jacksonville any assistance would be helpful great 👍 video
Hit me up 904-860-4799
Snakes?? 😱😱
Bro I lived there since I was a baby This is all A lie None of these issues expect hurricanes and kid friendly that’s not a lie
I just wanted to know when you say Jacksonville do you mean Duval County and surrounding counties?
This place is boring, investors screwed up the home values. Jobs don’t pay well either. Definitely stay out of north Jacksonville
It’s not Chunky cheese 😂
JSO isn't that great. But they are improving. And now DeSantis is making it legal to carry as of yesterday. Yay 🙄
So youd rather have just the gang members be armed? They dont care whether its legal or not.
@@gameguru42392 I didn't say I approve of this at all. Plus it's more than gangs that carry weapons in Florida. Do the fact checking

What crap. I've lived here for more than 20 years. Stay away from Moncrief and Mcduff and all is well.
📢My #1 realtor, I am coming to Jacksonville, trust and believe I AM WATCHING THE MARKET, building and ready to strike 👍🏾📡♟♟♟♟♟
