Hamilton County, Florida
Hamilton County sits right on Florida’s northern border with Georgia. Jasper is the county seat with a slow pace of lifestyle. You won’t find any beaches here because it’s about as inland as Florida gets.
It’s mostly rural, with forests and farmland stretching for miles. The county is known for its natural springs, popular for swimming and diving. White Springs, a tiny town, hosts the annual Florida Folk Festival.
The Suwannee River forms the county’s eastern and southern edges. Hamilton County is the kind of place where tractors share the road with cars. It’s Florida without the palm trees and tourists. But still, it’s just as sunny.
