The race is not always to the swift,
Nor the battle to the strong,
Nor satisfaction to the wise,
Nor riches to the smart,
Nor grace to the learned.
Sooner or later bad luck hits us all.

L.A.: Lower Avondale..... okay, Fairfax.

SPR and R/A are outnumbering all other hoods.

I would have sworn there were more Arlington, Murray Hill, and San Marcoans posting here than the poll is indicating.

Haha, that's where my hood is!  I was just having that same conversation Friday night.  We're not quite 'good enough' to be called Avondale  ;D

But we've got it better than "true" Avondale because we can walk to Publix and then to Montys. People on Edgewood have to drive to Pubes and drive home and then walk for their dollar beers.

World Golf Village... I was aiming for San Marco, but the resident Colombians overruled me. LOL.

This particular forum supports a thought I've had about Jacksonville for awhile. It's really not one decent sized city, but a mess of small cities that grew and eventually stuck together. I suppose the same can be said by a lot of cities, but somehow, as always, Jacksonville is different. Our biggest asset, the river, also divides us, as do attitudes and interests, and IMHO, the divide is greater here than in a lot of comparably sized cities.

Began life in Jacksonville living at the Marybuilt on Stockton St across from John Gorrie.  Then moved down Stockton to Gilmore St, then to the Southside (Sans Souci).  After high school (Englewood), left town for about 35 years but have been back (in Riverside) for about 3 years and lovin' it.

Grew up mostly in the Springfield area in the 70's and then moved to the riverside/westside area in the 80's and stayed there until I moved out of state in 2001. I also spent a short time in the Northside (by Gateway mall) in the 1970's and the Southside area (by Regency Mall) in the 80's.

I grew up in Sin City (the bad part of Arlington) and then moved on to Regency, then the south side. After that, I spent some time out at Jax Beach, BACK to Regency then Baymeadows, Riverside, and now settled permanently in Ortega and living happily on a street named after a Native American tribe! I finally done it, Aunt Esther! What a wild ride!
