Moving to Crawfordville, Florida? Start with the local context that changes a relocation decision in Wakulla County. With roughly 6,397 residents, Crawfordville sits in Northwest Florida. Locally it's known as the quiet county seat of Wakulla County, serving as a gateway to Wakulla Springs and the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. For relocators it's an appealing option for relocators wanting a small-town, low-cost, wooded setting a short drive from Tallahassee. Climate: humid subtropical with cooler winters than peninsula Florida — winter lows can dip into the 30s, summer storms run June through September. Before choosing a home, pay attention to Gulf-of-Mexico hurricanes (Sally 2020, Michael 2018), winter cold snaps, sugar-white sand erosion at the coast.
