Southside & Avondale FAQ
What neighborhoods make up Jacksonville’s Southside?
The Southside broadly refers to the area bordered by Arlington to the north, St. Johns County to the south, and San Marco/I-95 to the west — commonly used to describe San Marco, San Jose, Beauclerc, Mandarin, Bartram, St. Nicholas, Baymeadows, and Deerwood collectively, in addition to the specific MLS-designated Southside area east of Southside Boulevard.
Is Avondale part of the Southside?
Geographically, Avondale sits with Riverside on the west side of the St. Johns River near downtown, not within the Southside proper. It’s included in this guide alongside the Southside because both are core Jacksonville neighborhoods David actively serves.
What was the median home price on the Southside and in Avondale in June 2026?
Duval County single-family homes had a countywide median sales price of $349,000 in June 2026. Avondale specifically had a higher median of $431,500, with homes selling in a median of 14 days — a noticeably tighter market than the county overall.
