Southwest Tallahassee isn't exactly south -- it's actually on the northwest side of downtown. The neighborhood is on the southern tip of the Ochlockonee River Wildlife Management Area, with the Talquin Wildlife Management Area on the west side. The vast Apalachicola National Forest is directly south of the neighborhood, making Southwest Tallahassee ideal for those who enjoy the outdoors and activities like hiking, fishing, and camping. Wooded and peaceful, Southwest Tallahassee is deceptively close to downtown and is less than five miles to Florida State University.
