Cedar Grove is a quiet, well-kept enclave on the west side of Gainesville, prized for its shady streets, neighborly feel, and easy access to daily conveniences. Residents enjoy quick trips to the shopping and dining corridors along Archer and Newberry roads, while weekend outings often lead to trails, playgrounds, and events at the revitalized Depot Park. Commuters appreciate frequent service from RTS Gainesville and a straightforward drive to major employers.
Education is a standout draw. Families tap into Alachua County’s public school system, with abundant extracurriculars and magnet options managed by Alachua County Public Schools. Higher education is close at hand, too: the University of Florida anchors the city’s innovation and cultural scene, and Santa Fe College offers respected programs and community enrichment.
What gives Cedar Grove its personality is the everyday livability: morning jogs past tidy lawns, kids bicycling to nearby pocket parks, and neighbors gathering for evening walks. When you crave a change of scenery, the historic streets of Haile Plantation beckon with village shops and farmers markets, while museums, theater, and Gator game days are an easy hop away. Outdoor lovers can explore countless green spaces throughout Alachua County, from boardwalks to birding.
