Jacksonville is
the most populous city in the state of
Florida and the thirteenth most populous
city in the United States. It is the county
seat of Duval County.GR6 Since 1968, the
city has shared a consolidated government
with the county, making it the largest city
in land area in the contiguous United States
and the eleventh largest in the world. As of
2005, the city proper has an estimated
population of 782,623 [1] with a
metropolitan population of more than 1.3
million.[2]
Jacksonville is located in the First Coast
region of northeast Florida. The city is
situated on the banks of the St. Johns
River, which flows north and empties into
the Atlantic Ocean about 20 miles east of
downtown. The settlement that became
Jacksonville was founded in 1791 as Cowford
due to its location at a narrow point in the
river where cattle were once driven across.
The city was renamed in 1822 for Andrew
Jackson, the first military governor of the
Florida Territory and eventual seventh
President of the United States.
