Baymeadows is one of Jacksonville’s central Southside neighborhoods, built out from the 1970s through the 2000s along the Baymeadows Rd corridor between Philips Hwy and I-95. It’s both a residential neighborhood and one of the city’s key business and retail hubs, offering condos, townhomes, and single-family subdivisions within easy reach of shopping, dining, and major employers.

About Baymeadows

Baymeadows grew rapidly as Jacksonville’s Southside expanded, developing into a mixed-use area of office parks, retail centers, apartment and condo communities, and single-family subdivisions built mostly from the 1970s into the 2000s. Architectural styles range from Mediterranean-influenced stucco homes with arched windows to modern farmhouse and ranch-style construction with Craftsman details in the newer pockets. The area’s central location and dense retail base make it a practical, convenient home base on Jacksonville’s Southside.
