You don't just have to take it from
me when I say that Gainesville is
a great place to live. The historic
buildings, natural surroundings,
and wide variety of attractions have
inspired Money magazine
to rate Gainesville as, "The number
one place to live in North America."
And Gainesville does have lots to
offer: The population of 95,447...
Situated in north-central Florida, in an area
of rivers, lakes, and moss-draped trees, Gainesville
exudes small-town friendliness and college-town
energy.
Population:
95,447
Location:
Located 62 miles southwest of Jacksonville.
