Education More Important Than Transportation

I walked through the Highlands section of Jacksonville, FL off Broward Road near the Trout River in Duval County within Precinct 08X. Similar to other communities that have water front properties, the further removed from the water, the less affluent the neighborhood becomes. As such, the interest and concerns of the people change as well.

I found most of the people with whom I spoke very helpful, some even referring others to me. Most all liked my message that education/lifelong learning was more important than transportation related issues, such as high speed rail, to solving the ills of the district.
