Lafayette County pairs wide-open spaces with a close‑knit way of life. Centered on the historic courthouse square in Mayo, the county sits along the Suwannee River and within a short drive of Live Oak and Perry, with Suwannee County and Taylor County as neighbors. Residents enjoy quiet roads, starry skies, and room to spread out, yet essential services and everyday conveniences remain within easy reach.
Adventure flows here. The clear waters of Lafayette Blue Springs State Park invite summer swims, paddling, and snorkeling along a spring run that feeds the Suwannee. Anglers and boaters trace the river’s shaded bends, while the graceful Hal W. Adams Bridge offers memorable sunset views. South of town, Mallory Swamp Wildlife Management Area provides a vast network of forest roads for hunting, birding, and off‑the‑grid exploration.
Families value a personalized education experience through the Lafayette County School District, known for small class sizes, spirited athletics, and career and technical opportunities that reflect local industries. For permits, meeting calendars, and community updates, the Lafayette County website keeps residents plugged in. Housing options range from classic in‑town cottages to acreage homesteads, and the market rewards buyers seeking value as well as sellers ready to highlight river access, outdoor recreation, and a relaxed pace.
