Jacksonville was named in 1822 for Andrew Jackson, Florida’s first territorial governor and later U.S. President. Today, it’s an optimal mix of urban charm and rural beauty. Situated on the St. Johns River, this county seat for Duval County dominates Northeast Florida's economic landscape, dubbed the First Coast.
