FLAGLER COUNTY FL

General Info

Flagler County, situated in the northeastern part of Florida, has Bunnell as its county seat and Palm Coast as its largest city. Established in 1917, the county was formed from areas of adjacent Volusia and St. Johns counties and bears the name of the American industrialist Henry Flagler. Before the Spanish arrived in the 16th century, this region was home to various Native American tribes, including the Timucuans and Seminoles. By the early 1800s, the territory now recognized as Flagler County became increasingly populated with sizeable plantations dedicated to cash crops like sugar cane and corn. Flagler County was home to the largest sugar plantation along Florida’s east coast, the remnants of which now reside in Florida’s Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park. During its early years, the county’s prosperity was significantly bolstered by the cultivation of Irish potatoes, a fact reflected in its county seal that showcases a potato. In the early 1900s, Flagler County experienced the Florida land boom, leading to the growth of its tourism sector. The tourism surge facilitated Flagler Beach’s incorporation in 1925 and the construction of the Flagler County Courthouse in downtown Bunnell in 1926. Additionally, the Marineland Dolphin Adventure, originally known as Marine Studios, opened its doors in 1938, becoming the first venue to showcase dolphins performing for audiences. According to the 2020 census, the population of Flagler County stood at 115,378.
