Jacksonville Neighborhoods With The Best Boutique Shops

Shopping at large department stores, national brands, and longstanding chains has its advantages. The prices are often cheaper, sales are more frequent, and many even have fancy tech that allows customers to accumulate points or some form of credit that eventually leads to even more savings.

And if we’re being honest, there’s just something a little more satisfying about supporting local small businesses that help make a neighborhood feel like a community. So the next time you're out and about, swing by any of these Jacksonville neighborhoods to find some of the best boutique shopping anywhere…
