Established residential suburb surrounded by natural landscapes
Holly Oaks' residents have no shortage of outdoor activities, with the forested hiking trails of the Jacksonville Arboretum on the west, the marshy banks of Mill Cove on the north, and the manicured putting greens of Blue Sky Golf Club on the south. The area is full of recently renovated midcentury homes shaded by towering oak trees. "Holly Oaks bridges the older neighborhoods to the newly developed neighborhoods of Kernan Boulevard and is seeing a positive price impact from it," says Kyle Ford, a local Realtor at Hometown Realty of Duval with over six years of experience in the Jacksonville area. "A lot of locals in the area remain for a long time as it's a great area to grow a family." The community is mostly quiet, aside from the sound of planes flying to and from Jacksonville Executive at Craig Airport, to the south.

Mostly big companies. The local mall lost a lot of customers and stores in recent years but it is picking back up again.

The overall vibe of the neighborhood is very cozy and quiet. I used to wish that there were more children around, just to liven things up. However, the ones that have started trying to come into this neighborhood are not always the best behaved. For the most part, it is a low crime, low excitement, middle class living area.
