From Wikipedia:
Lake City is the county seat of Columbia County, Florida, United States. As of the 2010 census, the city's population was 12,046. It is the principal city of the Lake City Micropolitan Statistical Area, which is composed of Columbia County, and had a 2010 population of 67,531. Lake City is 60 miles west of Jacksonville.
Lake City began as the town of Alligator[8] in 1821 near the Seminole settlement known as Alligator Village. Alligator became the seat of Columbia County in 1832 when it was formed from Duval and Alachua counties. In 1858 Alligator was incorporated and renamed Lake City. The largest American Civil War battle in Florida took place near here in the Battle of Olustee in 1864; the Confederates won. In 1884 the Florida Agricultural College was established in Lake City as a land grant college; it was relocated to Gainesville in 1905 to form part of the University of Florida. The city's sesquicentennial was held in 2009.
Lake City is known as "The Gateway to Florida" because it is adjacent to the intersection of Interstate 75 and Interstate 10. The city is the site of Lake City Gateway Airport, formerly known as NAS Lake City. Florida Gateway College is located in Lake City.
By 1950, the population of Lake City was 7,467. The forestry products industry (turpentine, lumber, and pulpwood) had become a mainstay of the local economy.
During the Korean War, five Lake City soldiers were killed. A monument was dedicated in 1985 in their honor and memory.
In 1958, the Columbia Amateur Radio Society was formed. This was a group of amateur radio operators who enjoyed the ability to communicate all over the world. This radio club still exists today. Lake City's centennial was celebrated in 1959 with parades, fireworks and a 58-page book documenting one hundred years of progress, A Century in the Sun. The citizens of the town dressed in period attire, complete with whiskers. A good-natured clash arose between the men with additional facial hair and the women who did not like it.
In 1963 Interstate 75 and Interstate 10 were opened, intersecting at Lake City. In the 1960s Columbia County schools were not desegregated. In 1970 a judge ordered all Columbia County public schools to integrate. During the Vietnam War, 23 local Lake City soldiers were either killed or M.I.A.
In 1978 the Columbia County Public Library was established. Downtown Lake City was revitalized in the 1990s with new businesses, shops and restaurants. In 2000 Lake City had a population of 9,980.
On 10 June 2019, Lake City was hit by a cyber ransomware attack that rendered many of the city's communication systems inoperable. (On 25 June 2019, the City's insurance company, the Florida League of Cities, paid 42 bitcoins - over US$480,000 - for a mechanism to retrieve the City's files and data.

Great video. A voice over stating interesting facts of the places you drive thru would be an awesome edition. Happy 2023 everyone, cheers 🍻
Congrats on 5k mike! Great video as always.
I like your videos. No chatter or irritating music. I can follow on google maps because you label the streets. 👍It’s like having my own chauffeur.
Great video Mike and I see you hit 5k subscribers congratulations!
Thanks. We’re moving on up 🚀
the best thing I did was move from this city nothing to do no jobs, I live in Hallandale Beach Fl which is close to Miami and Hollywood Beach Fl the night life is great it's a lot of jobs that's available and paying good.
HAPPY 5000 SUBSCRIBERS, MIKE!
Thanks! Appreciate you coming along.
I feel like once you get north of orlando. The rest of Florida looks like the Deep South. (Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, South Carolina)
Rolling hills, big live oak trees with Spanish moss, the architecture is much older, a lot of brick/ older style building, most of the palm trees you see and hardie palms nothing tropical, you get 4 seasons. If it wasn’t so rural central and northern Florida would be the best spot in the state to live in.
Actually that’s because palm trees aren’t native to Florida. They were brought from California and Nigeria
I love county livin. So it's the best spot to live🤗🧡
@@RobCopeTv it’s the other way around. Palm Trees are native to Florida, and they’re imported to California.
@@backloggedgamer9338 Instead, according to Florida ecologists, only 12 palm tree species are actually native to Florida. Therefore, the majority of the palm trees that people see each year are not from this area. In fact, most of Florida's palm trees have been imported from other places like South America and Asia.
5k subs!🔥🔥
6:43 On the left, just beyond the Stucco wall, was Former Sportscaster Pat Summerall's last Lake City Home, on Alligator Lake.
Thank you for this video. This is my favorite part of Florida. God's country.
7:22 Hwy 41/441 bypassed Downtown in the mid 1960's, as I-10 was built. Soon after I-75 was opened to the West of our town.
