12 Florida Towns So Weird You'll Swear They Can't Be Real

Florida doesn't just attract weird people. It builds entire towns around them. From a retirement city bigger than Manhattan where golf carts have their own highway system, to a 16-person mermaid city that went bankrupt and got dissolved by the state, to a Disney-designed utopia that went 14 years without a crime and then had a murder and a suicide in the same week... these 12 Florida towns are so bizarre you'll swear someone made them up. But every single one is real. Every fact is verified. And somehow, they all exist in the same state. In this video, we're counting down the 12 weirdest, most unbelievable small towns in Florida, including: #12 Sopchoppy — The Worm Gruntin' Capital of the World #11 Two Egg — The Town Named After Bartered Eggs #10 Carrabelle — Home of the World's Smallest Police Station #9 Christmas — Where It's December 25th Every Single Day #8 Ochopee — The Smallest Post Office in America (61.3 sq ft) #7 Yeehaw Junction — The Crossroads Formerly Known as Jackass Junction #6 Gibsonton — The Carnival Sideshow Retirement Community #5 Weeki Wachee — The Dissolved Mermaid City #4 Cassadaga — The Psychic Capital of the World #3 Estero — The Hollow-Earth Cult Compound That's Now a State Park #2 The Villages — America's Largest Retirement Megatown #1 Celebration — The Town Disney Built (With a Dark Secret) We cover a town where county zoning legally allowed you to keep elephants and park carnival rides in your front yard. A community of certified psychic mediums who've been talking to the dead since 1875. A crossroads named after a donkey and a brothel that didn't get electricity until 1978. A hollow-earth cult whose leader died and was placed in a bathtub by his followers, who waited for him to come back to life. And a post office the size of a walk-in closet that serves a three-county delivery route through the Everglades.
