Citrus County, Florida
Citrus County is a county located in the U.S. state of Florida. As of 2000, the population
was 118,085. The U.S. Census Bureau 2006 estimate for the county is 138,143. Its
county seat is Inverness, Florida6. More than 90% of the population of Citrus County live
outside the two incorporated cities of Inverness and Crystal River.

Citrus County was created in 1887. The Citrus County area was formerly part of a
Hernando County. It was named for the county's citrus trees. Citrus production declined
dramatically after the "Big Freeze" of 1894-1895. Today, citrus is grown on one large
grove, Bellamy Grove. Additionally, some people do have trees on their personal property.

Phosphate mining also played a major part in the history of the County until the end of
WWII in which phosphate mining was largely moved overseas. The first newspaper of
Citrus County was called the Phosphate Times.

In the 1980s Citrus County began to develop and housing developments such as Beverly
Hills started to dominate the county.
