2021 Map of Lecanto

About this map

The settlement of Lecanto serves as a central hub in this contemporary study of Citrus County, where residential development meets the conservation lands of the Withlacoochee State Forest. This modern survey illustrates the expanding footprint of Inverness Highlands North and the presence of the College of Central Florida Citrus Campus, reflecting the area's growth as an educational and residential center. The landscape is characterized by its unique karst topography, featuring numerous depressions and water bodies such as Fivemile Pond, Mansfield Pond, and the aptly named Bull Sink. In the southeastern corner, the locale of Landrum marks a quieter transition near the forest boundary. For genealogists and local historians, the Lecanto Cem remains a critical landmark for tracing family roots in this part of Florida's Nature Coast.
