We may be relocating soon from Atlanta. I am originally from Jax so I am very familiar with the area. My family lives in the San Jose/San Marco area. We have 3 young children and are looking at moving into the Fruit Cove area because the St. Johns County schools are so much better than Duval. My question is, how is the commute in the morning driving from Fruit Cove to UNF area? 295 wasn't complete when i lived there last so I was wondering if the congestion has lightened up at the 295/San Jose area too. Thanks!

The commute from Fruit Cove to UNF is not really that bad. The 295 doesn't have that much traffic it just flows... Statistically speaking some schools in the mandarin area could keep up with St johns county. Duval just gets a bad rep because it is a very large district with very diverse demographics, while St johns is basically the same thing in the whole county. The commute could be bit lengthy about 20 mins with no traffic.

What's the commute like during rush hour (time wise), on 295?

I did it every day for a while. And my husband drives from Fruit Cove (Julington Creek) to Gate Parkway (very close to UNF) every day.

Traffic can be bad, but not horrible. If I leave at 8am, I can be at UNF by about 8:30. In the evening, if I leave UNF by 5:30 I can be back home by about 6pm.
