The Community

The town of Jay was established in 1902 and named after its first postmaster, J.T. Nowling. With agriculture as its main source of income, Jay’s population is around 600 people. Jay’s heritage dates to the early 1900s when the community was dependent on agriculture-related ventures, including cotton, peanuts, soybeans, corn and timber production. Then in the 1970s oil was discovered. The “oil rush” of Santa Rosa County, Fla., changed the small community like never before. Today, the small community is reaping the benefits of the gushing crude oil that has provided Jay more than $400 million dollars in revenues.
