The county
Where would a Dixie County vendor drive?
Cross City is the county seat and the larger of Dixie County's two incorporated towns, with 1,849 residents in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate. Horseshoe Beach, the other, has 165.
That leaves 89% of the county's 18,038 residents outside any town, so most Dixie County addresses answer to the county rather than a town. The county grew 7.6% between 2020 and 2025.
Dixie County borders four other counties in 1Stop's region: Gilchrist, Lafayette, Levy and Taylor. The application takes every Florida county you will drive to, so list them all.
For roofing and restoration crews: FEMA designated Dixie County for Individual Assistance after Hurricane Idalia (2023), Hurricane Debby (2024) and Hurricane Helene (2024).
Lawn watering there follows the Suwannee River Water Management District.

Getting set up
What does a vendor need to work in Dixie County?
Dixie County levies a local business tax, collected by its tax collector. A state-licensed business shows the license first (section 205.194).
A contractor the state licenses through DBPR that has paid the business tax where its business is based owes no other city or county a business tax for temporary work there (section 205.065).
Building permits for unincorporated Dixie County go through the county's Building Department.
A registered contractor can work only where its registration applies, so for work here it has to cover Dixie County; a certified one works anywhere in Florida. 1Stop holds the license on file in the licensed trades, with a certificate of insurance and a W-9 for everyone.
