6) Abundant water supply

While much of Florida suffers from near critical water shortages, Citrus County is in the enviable position of being on top of the Ocala Aquifer, a virtually inexhaustible underground water supply. 

To understand the magnitude of this water supply, consider that just four springs, located at Homosassa, Crystal River, Chassahowitzka and Weeki Wachee, have an average flow of 1 billion gallons of clear pure water per day! As more and more people move to Florida, it is important to know which areas have a sufficient supply of fresh water!
