Why Jacksonville homes are different

The St. Johns River runs directly through the city and floods its banks during major storms, and Jacksonville's subtropical humidity stays high enough year-round that AC systems, not weather alone, do most of the work keeping homes dry.

Historic Riverside and Avondale homes were often built raised on piers to handle the St. Johns River's flood cycles, while newer construction further from the river sits on slab and depends entirely on AC dehumidification to manage the region's year-round humidity.
