I used Google Maps to generate the list.

And of course I could have listed more hoods or even broken out Riverside/Avondale but, frankly, the list was already growing exceedingly long because I was trying to include everyone.  I think it does enough to give an idea of the general area of residence of our members.  I wanted something more specific than "westside" or "beaches" but not so specific as to indicate street addresses.

I could have easily added maybe 10 or 15 more hoods to the list for the old city, many of which no one has ever heard of other than it's relation to a street name or creek.  I had to stop somewhere.  ;D  If anyone else has a specific neighborhood they would like added just fire me a PM and ask.  No biggie.

Besides, Avondale should be honored to be included with the likes of Riverside....  ;)

Don't listen to those picky idiots...what's the point of showing what areas of town people live in if everyone has their own sub-neighborhood listed?  Might as well listed it by street names!  No wait...individual blocks of each street!  YEAH!

That's ok... I'm the only one from Ortega/Wesconnett on here. We're almost neighbors... almost.  :P

Poster speaking, yes. Still behind the curve on getting the city to recognize it properly.

LOL. That's a good one.

Not surprised on the voting. This is a very Springfield centric forum based on whose posting. It's nice to see that a lot of people who live in the boonies (you know who you are) have a genuine interest in Metro Jax. It would be great to see that grow in the future.

I once had a dream that I was in a convention for "Super Hero's", sitting at my table suddenly all the lights were on me and I was on stage, "This years hero CAPTAIN CANOE!" I woke myself up laughing (typical for my dreams)... FYI, CC has died and gone to canoe heaven! REALLY!

Jason, I'm joining you with a new St. Augustine address! Right now I hail from JTB and Hodges area, but it will soon be St. Johns, in World Golf Village. (Damn, maybe we'll finally meet!) Anyway, it's not really NW St. Johns as I'm more like West Central St. Johns and damn close to Green Cove Springs. So I voted NW St Johns as the closest...  But the toys at WGV and the price of a forclosure in mint condition were too good to be true! We'll see if it closes according to Hoyle. Y'all come down now ya hear? The fish are biting in Six Mile Creek!
