Island Pointe - Unclaimed

Highlands is a residential area in Jacksonville’s Northside, set among broad roads, wooded patches and low-lying terrain shaped by Northeast Florida’s warm, humid climate and mild winters. The neighborhood sits near the Trout River and offers access to outdoor recreation at places such as Highlands Park, with open space and recreation facilities. Everyday shopping and casual dining are found along nearby commercial corridors, while larger retail destinations and a wider choice of restaurants are a short drive away. The area’s history is tied to Jacksonville’s northward growth, and its arts and nightlife options are more concentrated elsewhere in the city. Driving is the most practical way to get around; bus service provides another option, though trips may take longer. The Highlands neighborhood rental market has a median rent of $1,550 per month and a typical range of $550 to $3,500.
