Middleburg balances a laid-back, creekside lifestyle with easy access to big-city amenities. Set in Clay County, the community appeals to those who want room to breathe—think spacious yards, quiet streets, and weekends on the water—while remaining a straightforward commute to Orange Park and Jacksonville.
Outdoorsy residents have a field day at Jennings State Forest, where miles of trails invite hiking, horseback riding, and wildlife watching amid longleaf pine and hardwood hammocks. Paddlers and picnickers gravitate to the tannin-stained beauty of Black Creek and the bluffs at Black Creek Ravines Conservation Area, a local favorite for scenic overlooks and birding.
Families appreciate strong public schools through Clay County District Schools, with Middleburg High School offering broad academic and extracurricular options that build college- and career-ready pathways. Daily needs are well covered, from local eateries and shops to modern care at Ascension St. Vincent’s Clay County, which anchors healthcare close to home.
Housing runs the gamut—established neighborhoods, new construction, and waterfront addresses along the creek—making it easy to match lifestyle and budget. With space for boats, gardens, and even horses, Middleburg rewards those who prefer a little more elbow room without sacrificing convenience.
