So what makes Saint Johns County and Saint Augustine Florida an amazing place to live?

The Saint Johns County Public Schools

As a father, of an amazing daughter, I have had the choice of placing my daughter in private schools or Saint Johns public schools. I choose Saint Johns public schools without any hesitation or regrets.

The Saint Johns County schools are built upon families that have relocated to this area because of the school system. This is a huge factor to judge the quality of people in this area, and the students of the schools that come from strong supporting parents.

I know this, because in 2009 I bought a home here during the market crash.

As the economy started to recover, and home sales started to increase, I would ask new neighbors why they choose Saint Johns County and almost all of them said “the schools are amazing.”

Without any doubt, you will find that Saint Johns County Public Schools are the dominate driver of growth and high demand.
