Living Here

In Madison County there is more to life than business! We are anything but small when it comes to our ability to make available the best of various worlds. Ours is a community rich in history, heroes and hometown feeling. The friendly people and peaceful atmosphere make Madison County a wonderful place to live. We enjoy quiet starlit nights and slow southern days. 

The incorporated towns of Madison, Lee and Greenville offer ample opportunities for fun and fellowship with annual festivals, special events and holiday celebrations held in the historic downtown area and community parks.
 
A warm tropical climate provides Madison County residents with year-round outdoor activities. Bordered on the east by the Withlacoochee and Suwannee Rivers and on the west by the Aucilla River, there is ample opportunity for fishing, boating, canoeing and swimming. With 716 square miles of forests, rivers, lakes, trails, parks and gently rolling hills, you will find our attraction is only natural!
 

With our family oriented quality of life, let Madison County be your destination for business and family!
