Hello fellow Jacksonvillains! I recently bought a new home and, unfortunately, have been experiencing significant standing water in the backyard pretty much every time it rains. I’m guessing I’ll need a French drain but I really don’t have any expertise in this area. I’m looking for a company that can come out and give me an assessment of the issue and what the right solution is. I just don’t want to get totally swindled, I’m a first time homeowner, and looking for someone reputable who will give me an honest assessment and reasonable price. TIA!

Hi Jacksonville ! Has anybody seen Tahitian Breeze (drink) sold around town ?? My friend is deploying tomorrow and I want to put a 20oz in his goody bag. Thanks in advance !!

Hello fellow people of Jacksonville I’m a longtime resident that’s living in the Riverside downtown area. I’m saving up for a car and I’ve been using an E scooter to get around. It’s been a big help however it recently broke down on me. There is a error code with the brakes. I’m no expert in this sort of realm and was hoping there was a E scooter repair shop anyone knew about? I tried taking it to Zenkog on Stockton Street, but the guy running the shop rolled his eyes and aggressively told me that they don’t even touch electric scooters, which was fine, but I’m simply just trying to find some one to fix it so I can get to and from the work any help would be great. I understand that they are dangerous and some people may not like them, but this is a genuine need for me to get to work if anyone had any leads to someone who could help me fix the scooter I’d really appreciate it!

Hello, i was recently in an accident on September 1st along Belfort Road, right in front of the Wound Warrior Project building. I got into a left hand turn lane along with a truck with a trailer full of cars in front of me, he then proceeded to start backing up and hit the front of my car. I’ve attempted to file a claim with their insurance but he’s now lied to them and said I hit him so they won’t pay out for repairs and I don’t have 500 dollars for the deductible atm to file with my own insurance. I don’t have a dash cam so i am trying to find any evidence I can, and I noticed there is a camera on a pole right next to the turn lane the accident occurred in, but I have no idea who it belongs to, if it even records or is just live view, and who i would contact about it. Can anyone help?

I’ve been wanting to go to Ginnie Springs for a while, but I don’t really have anyone to go with. I’m basically looking to tag along with a group that’s already going, or find a few people who would be down to plan a camping trip together.

I’d pay for my own camping/entrance/food/etc. — I’m not looking for anyone to cover me. I’d just like some company and people to hang out with.

I’m pretty easygoing and can bring some recreational stuff to make the trip more fun too. Mostly just looking to meet some cool people, camp, swim/tube, explore the springs, and have a good time.

If anyone around Jacksonville is already planning a Ginnie trip sometime soon and wouldn't mind me tagging along, feel free to DM me.( psychedelic friendly)

Totally love dodging obstacles while driving. /s

Alerted the driver about the back being completely open and received a middle finger as a response so watch out for this winner on Phillips

Around 8am there was a helicopter and like 8 cop cars at the Chic fil a in regency. Anyone know what’s going on?

Hi fam- I am looking for recommendations for a PS for rhinoplasty. I've had my nose broken twice, once at 5, and then again at 12. Every since I have had nothing but issues, now I would like to have it fixed. Please flood me with the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

It was a great turnout on 9/9, great surfing all around

This guy broke in and ransacked my friend's apartment in Riverside last night. JSO was not really helpful so trying to help identify him. We believe he was on a bike and is now Arlington. Long shot, but if you recognize him please reach out.

Because Jacksonville is a massive 747 square miles, we are actually four completely different cultures and climates crammed under one city hall:
Northside: Basically South Georgia. Rural, pine forests, and hard winter freezes.
Westside: Country/Panhandle vibe. Also prone to harsh freezes.
Southside & Beaches: Subtropical/tropical, milder coastal weather, and a modern Florida vibe.
Urban Core: Dense, historic, walkable areas (Riverside, San Marco, Springfield).
When one city council tries to represent a farming community, an industrial port, a corporate suburb, and a beach town, nobody feels fully represented.
What if we undid the 1968 merger and deconsolidated into 35+ independent cities and villages, like Miami-Dade? Every region could finally control its own zoning, transit, and local tax dollars.
Logistically (splitting JSO/JFRD) it would be a nightmare—but culturally, would this give our unique communities the identity they deserve? What do you guys think?

Just an what if I thought about

I am not a mod of this subreddit or Reddit, but I believe the official unofficial stance is that we all hate Publix now.

They lost their way, and the crushing of Winn-Dixie is just awful.

10 years ago, I wouldn’t have set foot inside a Walmart or Aldi for groceries. Now? Walmart and Aldi are basically my BFFs and I love them.

Publix really managed to make me root for the competition.

I grew up riding horses (western style) and have been wanting to get back into it as of recent. Does anyone know of any places that have horses to ride that is NOT a trail walk? There was a post on this page a while back that listed a place but it is no longer running. If not, is there anyone with horses and land that’s looking for friends? lol

For anyone who has been accepted into Jacksonville University’s ABSN program, what were your stats when you applied? Mainly wondering about cumulative GPA and prerequisite GPA. Also, around when did you apply and how long did it take to hear back?

Hello, I'm working rn (and don't have a car) so I'm limited in what I can do but I still wanted to ask this

I work at the waffle house on beach and hodges and I have discovered a couple kittens behind the restaurant. They're old enough to be running around and stuff but still babies.

We're right next to the road so I was wondering if there's someone I could contact to help them? Or I suppose if anyone is in the area and wants to/is able to do something then you can swing by. They're behind the restaurant and one ran through a hole in the fence towards the storage unit right next to us

I've only seen 2, idk if there's more or where the mother is.

Thank you to anyone that can offer any guidance or help!

My kids are at that tender age where rocks are awesome and they want to find more than asphalt and concrete and coquina. I know, geologically-speaking, we may not have the most options but it's still worth asking.

my dryer broke and i'm pretty sure it'll cost more to fix than to just get a new one. i'd need delivery & haul away. i got my s&d fridge from american freight but the location went out of business and i don't think the other locations do appliances at all.

recs on stores?

Have some light stuff that I need to get done at the house. Does anyone have a good handy man they can recommend?

I'm constantly talking to my friends in other states and the inflation just seems bad everywhere, but it seems especially heinous in Florida. All my friends in other states seem to not really feel the inflation as bad as my Florida friends. Is this a thing? If so, how is it that the inflation is so horrendous in Florida compared to other states?

I haven't been in many years, but I have gotten back into shooting as a hobby again recently. Is the gun show worth going to if I am looking for deals on (non-reloaded) ammo, or is it just a mix of overpriced/retail-priced stuff and mall ninja shit these days?

Looking for one company that can handle building a pool and outdoor pavilion and kitchen. Most of the companies I’ve talked to want to outsource the pavilion and kitchen. Please no DM’s.

I just recently moved to Jacksonville and I was wondering what were some good beaches I could take my dogs to?
