Name Origin: the countless number of lakes (approx. 1400) located in the county.
County Seat: Tavares
County Area: 1,156 sq. mi. (2,994 km. sq.) in total area; 17th largest county in Florida.
953 sq mi (2,468 km. sq.) of land area.
203 sq mi (526 km. sq.); or 17.58% of it is water area.
Lake County was formed from a portion of Orange and Sumter counties in 1887. Many called for the 1,156-square-mile county to be named after one of its founding fathers, H.H. Duncan, a former state representative and County Clerk of the Court. However, with hundreds of pristine lakes gracing its countryside, Lake was the natural choice.
