Apparently, she isn’t a recent arrival but has no family roots to the area. But a lot of the folks pushing this stuff are noobs. There is massive growth at the moment in the Jax metro area.

Yep. It's growing in every direction. Additionally, there's a lot of military transplants like myself who bought dirt cheap homes out here and decided to stay.
