Horse farms and Americana on the outskirts of Duval County
While the suburbs of Jacksonville have expanded westward in recent decades, the Outer West Side remains widely rural in the far reaches of Duval County. "If you go down Normandy Boulevard, you will find Diamond D. Ranch, where you can go horseback riding and visit with the farm animals. I think we have been there about a million times," says Janel Williams, a local Realtor with Watson Realty Corp. Her husband and business partner, Realtor Ron Williams, agrees, highlighting a few of the area’s common recreational activities and amenities. "We ride on horseback, and children can fish in the ponds,” he says. “The ranch also has a barn house for events like weddings and parties.” Stretching along the Interstate 10 corridor at the edge of the county, the Outer West Side is old logging and farming territory where only a few residential housing tracts have taken root for the community’s 6,000 residents. Immediately north, some local services, businesses and schools are clustered together in the town of Baldwin, an old railroad hub that local real estate professionals consider primed for growth because of its bucolic setting. “It’s a little pocket of peace. Let me tell you: Baldwin is cute,” says Heather Biltoc, a local Realtor with Herron Real Estate and co-owner of building company Busi B Homes.
The Diamond D Ranch has 725 acres and has been a staple of the community for many years.
New subdivisions are being built throughout the Outer West Side.

A mix of manufactured homes, new development and old farm estates
With about 6,000 residents, the community has a population density of one person per acre, so locals have more than enough room for recreational toys like private boats and campers. Although many buyers in the market are entering 21st-century residences, the community still has a few simple, cost-efficient manufactured and ranch-style homes from earlier generations that start at around $175,000. The styles of homes vary and include customized Colonial Revivals and other modern traditional single-family homes that go up to $400,000. With so much open land, some properties with grand estate-like homes reach above $1 million.
There are one and two-story homes to choose from in the Outer West Side neighborhood.

Swimming and horseback riding at Cecil Recreation Complex
Many locals spend time at the Cecil Recreation Complex, a more than 2,000-acre park built atop a decommissioned military base. The Williams family says they often visit the site multiple times per week, as the grounds include an equestrian center, tennis courts, an 18-hole golf course and an indoor Olympic-sized pool that’s used for swim and dive league competitions. Plus, there’s a wading pool for little kids to enjoy. In an older residential section of the community where a local firehouse and a Baptist church are located, folks can borrow books and connect to the internet at the Maxville Branch of the Jacksonville library system. Down the street from it, the Maxville Community Center features playgrounds and a series of baseball and softball fields. A quiet green space, Sal Taylor Creek Preserve is excellent for hiking along the wide trails and is suitable for dog walkers, bikers and horse riders

Class homestyle eats at Marks Market and Everybody's
Across its largely remote landscape, the area features several roadside restaurants, discount shops and convenience stores to meet the community’s basic needs. Marks Market & Deli on Normandy Boulevard serves simple, no-frill takeout fare like fried chicken, mac n cheese and corndogs. Along Highway 301, a primary north-south route in the community, Lechonera Los Foros roasts whole pigs in the Puerto Rican tradition to serve up platters of succulent pork shoulder and crispy pork belly. Nearby in Baldwin, across from the mayor’s office, Everybody’s dishes up Americana in an unassuming vintage diner with red bar stools, wood panel walls and sizzling grills that cook stacks of pancakes and country-fried steak. The town used to run its own grocery store with fresh meat and produce for a few years. After the Baldwin Market closed in the spring of 2024, however, patrons returned to shopping for fewer and not-as-fresh food items at Dollar General in town. Otherwise, folks must travel about 10 or more miles to a big box store or supermarket in Baker County or Jacksonville’s more developed Westside.
The Dollar General is a fast and convenient stop in Outer West Side.

About 20 miles west of Jacksonville via I-10
Living in Outer West Side generally requires a car or personal vehicle, as public service transit is not available in the area about 20 miles from downtown Jacksonville. Though many folks may hear helicopters and low-flying airplanes landing and taking off at the nearby Cecil Airport, the airfield is mostly used for private jets, air cargo and some military training programs rather than passenger carrier service.
The Jacksonville Transportation Authority Bus line goes through some Outer West Side areas.
