Dixie County, County division in Florida, US
Dixie County spans 864 square miles of land and water in the Big Bend region of northern Florida, featuring diverse natural landscapes and small communities.
Created on April 25, 1921, from the southern part of Lafayette County, this administrative division received its name from a common term for the southern United States.
The county maintains strong ties to its rural heritage through local festivals and community gatherings that celebrate traditional agricultural and forestry practices.
