Buckle Up, We're Going on a County Caravan!
Florida boasts a whopping 67 counties, each with its own unique flavor. You've got the classics like Miami-Dade County, where the party never stops, and Duval County, home to Jacksonville's chill vibes. Then there are the slightly less familiar gems:
- Glades County: More swamp than land, perfect for those who enjoy their neighbors with scales and sharp teeth (don't worry, mostly friendly gators).
- Lafayette County: Population: fewer people than some high schools. Great place to escape the hustle and bustle (or maybe just find a good hiding spot during a zombie apocalypse).
- Charlotte County: Home to beautiful beaches and a retirement community so large, they practically have their own government (and maybe their own currency - "Florido-dollars," anyone?).
Important side note: This is by no means an exhaustive list. There are far too many counties for that, and frankly, we wouldn't want to put you to sleep.
