Wakulla County

Wakulla County is an administrative region in northern Florida located in the Big Bend area, spanning several hundred square miles. The landscape is marked by extensive water features and shares borders with Leon and Franklin counties.

The area took its name from Timucuan words meaning water source or mysterious waters. It was established in 1843 and has been part of Florida's structure ever since.

The community here centers around Crawfordville, a small administrative hub where locals gather for local matters and daily errands. The tight-knit nature of this place means residents know each other through these everyday interactions.

County services are accessible through the website mywakulla.com, where visitors can find information about local facilities and services. Crawfordville serves as the main administrative hub and provides good orientation for exploring the area.

Crawfordville is one of only two county seats across all of Florida that remains unincorporated as a city. This makes it unusual among the state's 67 counties.
