Atlantic Beach, a city in Duval County, Florida, is the
northernmost of the Jacksonville Beaches communities. When the
majority of communities in Duval County consolidated with
Jacksonville, Florida in 1968, Atlantic Beach, along with
Jacksonville Beach, Neptune Beach, and Baldwin, Florida,
remained quasi-independent. Like the other towns, it maintains
its own municipal government but its residents vote in the
Jacksonville mayoral election and have representation on the
Jacksonville city council. The population was 13,368 at the 2000
census. According to the U.S Census estimates of 2005, the city
had a population of 13,436.[3]
Development of Atlantic Beach took off around 1900 after Henry Flagler built the Mayport stop of his East Coast Railway to the north of the town. The Atlantic Beach Corporation bought and developed most of the land in what is now Atlantic Beach in 1915, and the town was incorporated in 1926. The town was expanded in the 1987 when it annexed Seminole Beach,[4] which had previously been within the city limits of Jacksonville.
