Switzerland Living
 Surrounded by lush, mature trees, riverfront land and dozens of historical landmarks, Switzerland offers a cozy suburban haven for families, retirees and investors looking for a country lifestyle amongst Floridian waters. The beaches of northeastern Florida are secluded and unspoiled with more than 40 miles of scenic, uncluttered coastline. This vast stretch of soft, white sand offers residents breathtaking sunrises and sunsets and an endless list of ocean activities to enjoy, from boating and water skiing to wind surfing and fishing. Located in St. Johns County that encompasses more than 600 square miles, residents can enjoy the nature that riverside living provides, easily travel to the beach cities bordering the Atlantic and relish in the arts, sports and services of nearby Jacksonville.
Education The main elementary schools are Hickory Creek Elementary and Cunningham Creek Elementary. The middle school is Switzerland Point Middle School, and the High School is Bartram Trail. The district also offers two alternative educational centers, a vocational-technical school and a juvenile justice facility. Students regularly score above the national averages on the ACT and SAT, with more than half of high school graduates continuing on to post-secondary education. Nearby colleges and universities include Jacksonville University, the University of North Florida and Florida State College at Jacksonville. Community Events St. Johns County hosts a number of community events each year. Spring brings the Epic Celebration of Spring and the Spring Arts and Crafts Festival, while the Greek Landing Festival occurs each June. A number of holiday festivals draw hundreds of visitors each winter. |
