The area is seeing continued growth. A large beverage manufacturer opened its doors in Clay County in 2022. A community library is also on the way.

Quiet community with easy access to bigger amenities
Compere said she chose to live in Oakleaf because she wanted a quiet, safe area where she could get to know her neighbors and be close to her church yet still easily access all the amenities she needs. She found just what she was looking for. “Oakleaf is remote from a lot of the rest of Clay County,” Compere says. “If you’re not planning to go to Oakleaf, it’s very unlikely that you’re going to drive through here, which is part of its charm.” But a new highway project, the First Coast Expressway, has opened its first section, which comes right through Oakleaf Plantation. The finished project will form a beltway around Jacksonville, connecting Interstate 10 to Interstate 95. It will make it easier for residents to get from one side of Clay County to the other, relieve congestion in the Jacksonville area and provide easier access to the surrounding region and bigger retail stores. The closest airport is Jacksonville International.
The Fiest Coast Expressway is a great way to get from Duval County to clay county quickly.
The Jacksonville International Airport is just about 35 minutes from Oakleaf Plantation.
