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!

  • 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.
  • The town of Ochopee, FL (unincorporated) has a population of 8. It has the USA’s smallest United States Post Office
  • @BigDaddy-dr8gf
    FL is a strange state. The further north you travel, the more southern you get.
  • @braveunseld6903
    I think my favorite was Bascom - seemed like a nice little town. Way better than the snobs at Indian Creek I bet! 🤣
  • @tombillard5264

  • @marionpolk6190
    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! ☺️

    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 has been in Bascom area for about 200 years. You showed 2 of their headstones. Thanks for visiting. Gotta get back out there soon.
  • @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 😍
  • @MrFroglips69
    Groovy small town documentary. I live in Florida and I had never heard of any of these places except Marineland which like you I visited with my parents when I was a kid.

    A NICE RIDE, TODAY! I ALWAYS LOVED MY FLORIDA TRUCK TRIPS ESPECIALLY IN WINTER!! I WAS MOSTLY BASED IN ORLANDO WHERE I GATHERED 25 CEMENT TRUCKS AND BROUGHT THEM TO WINTER PARK TO PREPARE THEM FOR OVERSEAS EXPORT. AT WINTER PARK I WOULD TAKE MOST OF THESE TRUCK TO APOPKA AND HAVE AN JUNKYARD TORCH OFF THE MIXER BODIES. I ALSO BROUGHT A GOOD NUMBER OF DRYWALL CRANE TRUCKS TO OLATHE KS ALSO! MY MOST INTERESTING AND CHALLENGING TRIP TO FLORIDA WAS TAKING TWO DAMAGE DEBRIS REMOVAL GRAPPLE TRUCKS TO FLORIDA, FUELED BY NATURAL GAS! AS THERE ARE FEW NATURAL GAS FILLING LOCATIONS WE HAD A LIST OF FUELING STATIONS TO USE ON THE ROUTE, AND WE HAD TO FUEL 8 TIME! MY FIRST TRUCK HAD AN DEFECTIVE FUEL GUAGE SHOWING FULL AT ALL TIMES! I DID MAKE IT OK BUT IT WAS WORRISOME!!

  • Good video my Friend. Enjoyed it as always. Lazy Lake Florida reminds me of Eastborough Kansas in many ways....🤔 Thanks for posting, stay safe and Be Blessed.
  • @robkeysnj

    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.
