What this budget forces you to decide here
New with a district, or gated without
eTown, Seven Pines and Tamaya carry CDD assessments; Hampton Park and Old Still carry HOAs only. Same budget, different monthly.
Under construction vs finished
eTown and Seven Pines are still building; Tamaya and the gated 2000s communities are finished streets. Construction traffic and builder price sheets are the trade.
Townhome or house
The Southside’s townhome tier (Newton, Granville, Terra Costa) buys the location at a lower entry with the association carrying the exterior.

Common questions
Is $600k enough to buy in eTown & the Southside?
The live count at the top of this page is the honest answer for today: every home for sale across these neighboring subdivisions at or under $600k, with the median. The three homes below are picked from that set by rule (most space, newest, best price per square foot), so what you see is what the money buys this week, not a brochure.
How are the three homes chosen?
By rule, from every marketable listing in the ring at or under the budget: the largest living area, the newest build year, and the lowest price per square foot, each a different home. The set refreshes with the feed. No home is featured by arrangement and no listing agent is involved in the pick.
Which Southside communities have CDD fees?
eTown (every village), Seven Pines and Tamaya carry community development district assessments; Hampton Park, Old Still and the older Southside subdivisions do not. The eTown fees page and the Jacksonville CDD page list them; the tax history on every listing shows the actual line.
