Yulee was named after David Levy Yulee, who served as a Democratic Florida senator from 1845-1851 and 1855-1861. Because he served as the president for multiple railroad companies throughout his life, Yulee is known as the Father of Florida railroads.
A small but energetic city on the eastern edge of northern Florida, Yulee technically isn't really a city at all. It's actually a census designated place, meaning it looks like a city and has the right population concentration, but it doesn't have a separate municipal government overseeing affairs like your typical incorporated town or city.
