Arredondo

Arredondo lies on Gainesville’s southern fringe in north-central Florida, where suburban development meets the low, wet prairie country of Alachua County. The community is named for the Arredondo Grant, a vast Spanish land grant issued in 1817, recalling a period long before modern Gainesville spread across the area. To the east, Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park protects a broad basin of marshes, lakes and grassland that defines much of the regional terrain. Arredondo remains a quiet historic locality within Gainesville’s wider urban area, near the University of Florida yet distinctly less urban in character.
