Jacksonville
North Florida metropolis
Jacksonville most commonly refers to the largest city in Florida by population and area, a major port city in the northeastern part of the state.
Several other U.S. cities share the name, including Jacksonville, North Carolina, home to a Marine Corps base.
Most are named after Andrew Jackson.
I'm driving down to Jacksonville for the game.
