About this neighborhood
What you should know about Westside
Jacksonville's Westside covers a huge area west of the I-295 beltway, including neighborhoods like Argyle Forest, Oakleaf Plantation, and communities around the former NAS Cecil Field.
Much of the Westside has seen significant residential development over the past two decades. Newer master-planned communities offer modern construction at relatively accessible prices, drawing first-time buyers, military families (NAS Cecil Field's footprint), and value-conscious move-up buyers.
School quality varies; Clay County schools (just south) often pull demand. Commute to downtown via I-10 is typically 20-30 minutes; traffic on the Buckman Bridge can be an issue heading east at rush hour.
