Welcome to one of the best kept secrets of the southeast - Jacksonville, Florida. Jacksonville has one of the lowest overall costs of living in Florida and the U.S. Affordable, high-quality housing, ample recreational opportunities, proximity to the beach and short commute times are just some of the reasons why so many people choose to relocate to Jacksonville every year.

Jacksonville is home to the PGA TOUR, the Association of Tennis Professionals, and the PGA Hall of Fame. And the city's most exciting sporting attraction is the Jacksonville Jaguars, the NFL's 30th expansion team, which played its 1995 inaugural season in a new world-class stadium.

Favorite annual events include the Jacksonville Jazz Festival, the Kingfish Tournament and Festival, the River Run, the PGA TOUR Tournament Players Championship, and several other festivals, concerts and shows. Classical music enthusiasts enjoy the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra, recognized as one of the finest orchestras in the country.

Jacksonville's appeal as a premier place to do business has been reinforced by national media attention, including a steady ranking among the "top ten best places to live" by Money magazine. Plus, for the second time in four years, Jacksonville topped the list of "America's Hottest Cities" for 2002 according to Expansion Management Magazine.
