About Baldwin
Baldwin is a small railroad town in western Duval County, about 20 miles west of downtown Jacksonville, with roughly 1,400 residents. It grew up around a major rail junction where CSX lines split toward Jacksonville, Callahan, and Wildwood, and it retains a working-town character with a compact downtown, a town hall, and a well-known rail-trail. Housing is modest and affordable: older frame homes, manufactured homes, and small newer subdivisions.
