What You Get (in Northeast Florida) for … $900,000
OK, I’m back with another “What You Get For…” post. You’ll note that I’ve changed the title a bit for the sake of accuracy. While Jacksonville is the primary MSA down here where I live and work, there’s really quite a bit more beyond the Duval County lines.

What You Get (in Jacksonville) for … $500,000
If you haven’t read one of my “What You Get For…” posts before (and I’m guessing many of you haven’t), let me give you some background.
