That is right! Not only is Gainesville growing each time the UF and Santa Fe student population come back, but now we are receiving an influx of parents. It is becoming more common across the nation for students to have their parents live in the same town at their children go to school or to buy property large enough to accommodate their visits. Quite a few parents are even staying after their children graduate. This trend is changing the real estate market in college towns. Demographics may shift in an unexpected way in Gainesville if the trend continues.
