Have you ever wondered what the smallest towns in a state were like? Well wonder no more as I have traveled all around Florida to visit the 10 smallest incorporated towns. I have done several other states like this and Florida's was definitely the most unusual so far. There are traditional small towns, super elite places, beach communities, and even theme parks! It was a lot of fun finding these towns and learning about the histories of each one - hope you enjoy it too!

  • My family has been in Bascom area for about 200 years. You showed 2 of their headstones. Thanks for visiting. Gotta get back out there soon.
  • The town of Ochopee, FL (unincorporated) has a population of 8. It has the USA’s smallest United States Post Office
  • @braveunseld6903
    I think my favorite was Bascom - seemed like a nice little town. Way better than the snobs at Indian Creek I bet! 🤣
  • Wow incredible video! I can't believe you don't have a million subscribers - this is fascinating. Thank you for the time, effort, and money it took to make this video.

    Im a Floridian and my original hometown had 208 people back in the 80's. But its not in Florida, its in Idaho: a little town along I-84 called Bliss. Go Bears. (Currently in the Tallahassee area).

    My family was one of the founders of Horseshoe bch. It was built on commercial fishing. Now it's a tourist spot. We go back 8 generations here.

    I’m a Florida native now living in Wichita for the last year. Love this video and seeing the ones you post around Kansas. Thanks! ☺️

  • @mandyb
    My favorite is Marineland. I love the area. Peaceful and relaxing. I haven't been there in years, sadly. Loved going there during my childhood.
  • The more southern you travel the more northern you get. During the rainy season much of the charm returns and it's pretty chill here. You can get a seat in a restaurant without a long wait. During snowbird season the northern mentality returns with all the rush, loud rudeness & sucky driving that a fast paced life seems to breed. Not all are a%@holes but enough are to change the whole vibe of an otherwise great place to live.

    Horseshoe beach has moments at that boat ramp where there is no water for a 1/4 mile. I was a federal contractor for NOAA and had to go there often.
  • @lindaromero7780
    Well done. I appreciate the “cut to the chase” approach. You get right to it, provide interesting facts, and drone footage is a plus.
  • @BigDaddy-dr8gf
    FL is a strange state. The further north you travel, the more southern you get.
  • @percymcnabb4746
    wow, you would never think that there would still be small towns left in florida. so nice for the folks that live there
  • @juanitagarcia958
    Another fantastic video, John! The large old tree in Cloud Lake is majestic. Otter Creek looked peaceful and remote! But Marineland is my favorite 😍
