Callahan is a town in Nassau County, Florida, United States, adjacent to Duval County. The population was 962 at the 2000 census. Callahan is named for Daniel Callahan, who helped build a railroad here in 1854. Its major industries are timber and agriculture. It is also home to one of the largest mulch manufacturing plants in the country. Callahan is a town that is growing, but has retained its small-town feel. The town is located about 20 minutes from downtown Jacksonville, and about 18 miles from the Georgia state line. The town is intersected by Florida A1A on the east, Florida 301 on the west, and U.S. 1 on the north and south ends of town – hence is our town motto, Crossroads to the Future. These intersections bring in hundreds of motorists daily to our town. While passing through, you will see plenty of places to eat, offering a variety of food. Gas is readily available to get you on down the road to where you are headed. More and more you can find a variety of businesses offering essentials to things you might just like to take home with you. |
Callahan has four schools – Callahan Elementary, Callahan Middle, Callahan Intermediate and West Nassau High School, home of the Warriors. During football season, you will find locals at the stadium, cheering on the team. The town is also home to the Greater Nassau Chamber of Commerce, a very active part of the community, and is, like the town, growing every day. The Chamber has been a very important part of the community, and you can find the answer to all your questions about this from the GNCC.
