Population Density
The Broward Islands neighborhood in Jacksonville, Florida, experienced population changes from 2010 to 2022. The population increased from 530 to 784 residents during this period. This growth was not consistent, with periods of decline occurring throughout the years.
The most significant population increase occurred between 2020 and 2021, with growth from 613 to 787 residents, a 28% increase. This increase may be attributed to factors such as new housing developments, changes in local economic conditions, or shifts in residential preferences.
The population density in 2022 was 139.45 people per square mile. This density suggests a suburban or semi-rural character for the neighborhood. Residents likely have larger lot sizes and more open space compared to denser urban areas of Jacksonville.
The neighborhood's island location suggests that water-related activities may be significant in the community. Residents may have access to boating, fishing, and other aquatic recreational opportunities.
Population fluctuations, including periods of decline from 2015 to 2019, may indicate instability in the local housing market or changes in the area's attractiveness. The upward trend since 2020 suggests renewed interest in the neighborhood.
Based on the 2022 population, Broward Islands has an estimated 300 housing units. The neighborhood likely consists primarily of single-family homes, with possible small multi-family dwellings. The average household size may be larger than the national average.
Broward Islands demonstrates a dynamic demographic profile with both growth and contraction over the past decade. Its current population density and recent growth suggest a suburban environment that may be increasingly attractive to new residents, potentially due to its island setting within the Jacksonville metropolitan area.
