Building in Gonzalez

Gonzalez had 14,586 residents at the 2020 census, up from 13,273 in 2010. It sits north of Pensacola as part of the broader Cantonment growth corridor and is home to J.M. Tate High School, the largest public school in Escambia County. The community is part of the Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent metropolitan area, and its location alongside Cantonment keeps it about 25 minutes from our Pace office, close enough that we treat it the same way we treat Cantonment itself.

Lots and land

We don't currently hold lots in Gonzalez. If you own land there, contact Scott directly and we'll walk it with you, talk through Escambia County's permitting process, and give you an honest read on timeline before you commit to anything. We handle that process the same way for Gonzalez as we do for Cantonment, since the two communities sit right next to each other along the same growth corridor.

Why buyers pick Gonzalez

Gonzalez draws buyers who want to be near J.M. Tate High School and the Cantonment growth corridor without paying the premium that comes with lots closer to Pensacola itself. It's grown steadily for over a decade, and its proximity to Cantonment means it gets the same regular attention from our crews. For buyers already looking at Cantonment, Gonzalez is worth a direct comparison.
