  • Jacksonville is the most populous city in Florida, and is the largest city by area in the contiguous United States as of 2020. It is the seat of Duval County, with which the city government consolidated in 1968. Consolidation gave Jacksonville its great size and placed most of its metropolitan population within the city limits. As of 2019, Jacksonville's population was estimated to be 911,507, making it the 12th most populous city in the U.S., the most populous city in the Southeast, and the most populous city in the South outside of the state of Texas. The Jacksonville metropolitan area has a population of 1,523,615 and is the fourth largest metropolitan area in Florida.

    Jacksonville is centered on the banks of the St. Johns River in the First Coast region of northeast Florida, about 25 miles (40 km) south of the Georgia state line and 328 miles (528 km) north of Miami. The Jacksonville Beaches communities are along the adjacent Atlantic coast. The area was originally inhabited by the Timucua people, and in 1564 was the site of the French colony of Fort Caroline, one of the earliest European settlements in what is now the continental United States. Under British rule, a settlement grew at the narrow point in the river where cattle crossed, known as Wacca Pilatka to the Seminole and the Cow Ford to the British. A platted town was established there in 1822, a year after the United States gained Florida from Spain; it was named after Andrew Jackson, the first military governor of the Florida Territory and seventh President of the United States.
    Harbor improvements since the late 19th century have made Jacksonville a major military and civilian deep-water port. Its riverine location facilitates Naval Station Mayport, Naval Air Station Jacksonville, the U.S. Marine Corps Blount Island Command, and the Port of Jacksonville, Florida's third largest seaport. Jacksonville's military bases and the nearby Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay form the third largest military presence in the United States. Significant factors in the local economy include services such as banking, insurance, healthcare and logistics. As with much of Florida, tourism is important to the Jacksonville area, particularly tourism related to golf. People from Jacksonville are sometimes called "Jacksonvillians" or "Jaxsons" (also spelled "Jaxons").

      It only seems that way because north bank downtown is the building Northside of the st john's river south bank are the building on the southside of the river west bank are a couple more building jus west of the the main North bank downtown the you have more buildings in two more spots of the city known as business parks your mainly looking at the north bank downtown but if all the buildings were in one spot it would look larger

      ​@@robertbonds7377it's nice in the winter and very hot from late spring to mid autumn A nice place to live, but only if you have a car.Living there with no car is hard even if you have a bike. Also without a car socially people look at you funny like why don't you have a car. You have to also be careful there because the police will take you to jail over breaking petty laws like drinking beer outside or driving on a suspended license.

      @@ms3173 ok I feel u on that but feel me on this North FL is a lot older than South FL lets say Miami was incorporate as a city 70 yrs after jacksonville established it's self as the greatest city in FL 4 years later 1901 our downtown burned to ground with a few connecting neighborhoods since then the newer region would surpass us greatly in wealth so with that said the only difference between North n South FL we have that older colonial Fl look south have a newer art deco FL look but trust me jacksonville has about 900 sq miles of land 22 miles of beach it's places out here will blow your mind and just south of our city limits is St augustine FL the oldest city in this country. So out side the city it's self the North FL region is almost 300 yrs older than South FL jacksonville used to be the movie capital of the south but some how the 1901 fire crippled this area as people began to flock to the newly built south FL but out side of that they got palm tree we got palm trees they got white sand beaches blue water we do to the only other difference North is 50% black 50% white south FL is black and white and everyone from the caribbean and south america so I guess that what u mean by tropical
