Nocatee is now home to 8,500 families— from growing families and young professionals to empty-nesters and retirees. It is a coastal community of neighborhoods with varied home-styles and something for every walk of life.
Current residents have a long list of reasons why they love Nocatee, including lesser-known resident perks and benefits only imaginable in a master-planned community. Here are this summer’s top 5 reasons to move to Nocatee:
1. Health St. Johns County was recently found, for the tenth consecutive year, by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute to be the healthiest county in the state of Florida. Miles of Greenway Trails, an Intracoastal kayak and paddle sports launch, the Nocatee Swim Club and more, all make it EASY for Nocatee residents to maintain a vibrant, healthy lifestyle.
2. Amenities Nocatee is home to a variety of world-class amenities. The newest Nocatee amenity, Nocatee Spray Park, features a four-story above ground interactive spray playground, the tallest of it's kind in Northeast Florida. It also includes its own bar & grill, playground, outdoor seating area, and event lawn. Nocatee also includes Splash Water Park a resident exclusive amenity that features its own tiki bar, outdoor dining, a lazy river, ample deck space, the tallest slide tower in Northeast Florida and much more. The PARC Group, Nocatee's Master Developer recently released news of the 'Enchancing the Lifestyle' campaign to expand and update both Nocatee's Splash and Spray Water Parks. Major additions include an adult serenity pool and two racing slides. 
Alongside Nocatee’s impressive aquatic features, families enjoy several dog parks, acres of nature trails, electric vehicle pathways (Nocatee was the region’s first planned community to be Electric Vehicle (EV) approved), neighborhood parks, fitness club, the Nocatee Preserve, the Nocatee Landing and many other outdoor pursuits.
With amenities like these, residents never want to go out of town!
3. Home Value The Nocatee community is located within one of the wealthiest zip codes on the First Coast. A 2015 study spotlighted the top ten most affluent zip codes in Northeast Florida, including Nocatee’s 32081. This not only speaks for the quality of life, but the value of homes and real estate within and surrounding the flourishing community. According to a report by 247WallStreet in 2019, St. Johns County is the richest county in Florida. Right now, all neighborhoods with new home opportunities are located in St. Johns County, the #1 Rated School District in Florida.
