Leon County, Florida
Leon County is home to Florida’s capital, Tallahassee, and Florida State University. The county is part Southern charm, part college town energy. You’ll find rolling hills here, a rarity in Florida.
The Capitol building dominates the skyline downtown. Locals love hanging out at Cascades Park or kayaking at Wakulla Springs. There’s a thriving food scene, from food trucks to upscale restaurants.
The county’s history runs deep, with sites like Mission San Luis. Traffic isn’t bad, except on game days when the Seminoles play. Leon County has more trees than beaches, more politicians than tourists. It’s Florida with a dash of Georgia thrown in.
