Yes, the vast majority of new home communities in St. Johns County—including SilverLeaf, Nocatee, and RiverTown—are established as Community Development Districts (CDDs). This district finances the high-quality infrastructure and amenities that the area is known for, such as water parks and clubhouses. The CDD fee appears on your annual property tax bill and typically consists of a bond portion (which can be paid off) and an operations portion. Because these fees vary by neighborhood and lot width, you must verify the specific annual assessment with the builder.

What should buyers know about school zoning and "Career Academies" in St. Johns County?

The St. Johns County School District is consistently ranked as the top district in Florida, making it a primary driver for local real estate. A unique feature of the high schools here is the Career Academy system, which allows students to apply for specialized programs (like aerospace, medical, or IT) at schools outside their zoned boundary, provided they are accepted. However, due to rapid population growth, attendance zones for standard enrollment change frequently. It is critical to use the official school locator tool to confirm the current zoning for any specific address.
