LOL! Defuniak Springs. Brings back the memory of one of our trips to see Dad. We hated the interstate so found a nice state highway route that’s a straight shot from here. BUT, we missed our turn at Florala and ended up in Defuniak Springs. That was ok. We just hit 90W and got to Ft. Walton easily enough.
We didn’t get downtown though. That’s a nice courthouse. I hope they’ve kept it up over the years.
They added an annex to the courthouse years ago. They then have added several satellite offices. The Sheriff moved the jail about 5 miles north of town.
While DeFuniak Springs is the county seat, South Walton county has grown to where that is where the population is.
