Can't stop growth, it is a fact of life along with the fact that very few communities ever truly have the ability to plan or prepare for it..............unless you have your own carved out community like Disney

The sleepy little beach town of Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island that we came to love thirty years ago is gone. Demolition (teardowns) are becoming pretty frequent along A1A and entry level below 200k on island is just about gone.

Off island the number of homes getting built is continuing to climb.

At this point the need for services, schools and roads is behind and like Saint John's County we will most like be putting up trailers at our schools and incorporating SPLOSH taxes to fund these things.
That's too bad. Fernandina Beach and Amelia were so nice and surprisingly affordable.

According to city data Florida has a higher income, but whats crazy about this is the fact that Georgia was a much larger state then Florida up until 1960. Now Florida has more than double the population of Georgia, and continues to grow faster. Being the "richer" state doesn't seem to have done too much for the state.
