About these numbers

  • Sources: Suwannee River Water Management District (245 records); Southwest Florida Water Management District (6 records). Records were fetched October 25, 2026.
  • What’s counted: wells with a reported depth whose use is household, irrigation, public supply or agricultural. Monitoring wells, injection wells, plugged wells and permits that were never drilled are left out. Methodology.
  • Dates: SWFWMD permits issued 1980–2005. The SRWMD layers carry no date.
  • Not a guarantee: a record shows how deep one well was permitted or built. It doesn’t predict yield, water quality or what your well will need.
