WOW, someone sure did steer you wrong!
Are you familiar with the term "military town"? As in,
everything is based around the Marines. Forget any kind of symphonies, non-action movies, art galleries, etc. I certainly have respect for our troops, but what appeals to them on their time off is not my cup of tea. Who on earth told you that Jacksonville is like "Dawson's Creek"!
You owe it to yourself to
visit some places before considering moving there! You would see in about 5 minutes that J'ville is not where the majority of promising young female law students would pick to start a life.
You might look more toward the Virginia Beach/Norfol area--those are cities, but there are small town up that way though there is also a Navy base (for those single men). Williamsburg and Richmond aren't too far away from there.
Many folks consider Jacksonville "the armpit of NC".
