2024 Map of Durbin

About this map

Durbin Swamp and the dense wetlands of the Twelvemile Swamp define the landscape of this portion of St. Johns County. This recent survey records the modern expansion of Jacksonville to the north and the sprawling development of Nocatee to the east, contrasting sharply with the preservation of large Conservation Areas. The Fec railroad remains a central transit spine, running parallel to the corridor through Durbin and Hilden. To the south, the planned community of World Golf Village emerges near the Big Island Swamp, illustrating the transition from traditional Florida wetlands to modern suburban hubs. Navigational features like the Intracoastal Waterway on the eastern edge and the winding course of Durbin Creek highlight the enduring importance of the region's hydrology even as new road networks like Bartram Springs Pkwy and Valley Ridge Blvd reshape the interior.
