Jacksonville — Florida's largest city by area and one of the Southeast's major commercial hubs — has a diverse small business economy spanning financial services in downtown, logistics and distribution near the port, healthcare and life sciences in Riverside, technology in the growing Southside corridor, and retail throughout the suburbs. Jacksonville's competitive labor market makes health insurance a priority for small businesses. Florida Blue and Aetna dominate Duval County; Baptist Health and Mayo Clinic Jacksonville anchor the hospital network landscape.
