Jacksonville is a city that, despite what it has to offer, is often given a bad reputation nationally.
As a result, potential visitors or even potential future residents are scared away from a city that they might have loved.
So to help those who are still on the fence about Jacksonville, we’ve compiled a few of the most common – and most inaccurate – myths about the city and an explanation of why they’re simply not true.
This is another one that may have been true in the past but is finally starting to change.
Areas like San Marco and Five Points are thriving with shops and active nightlife scenes. The area around the Town Center is exploding and has added fun, family-friendly options such as Topgolf, iFLY, and The Escape Game.
Downtown is still a problem area, but even there, the tide is turning with almost-weekly events held in hopes of bringing foot traffic back to the long-beleaguered area.
Still nothing to do,unless you eat a lot. We need a variety for people not just arts. Not everyone is into the theater or art. Some of use are more adventurous. We need all kinds of amusement. Idle minds create crime.
