Florida Well Data · FL WMD/county
FL WMD/county well records, searchable by address
Every Florida well log is filed with Florida's water-management districts and county well-permitting programs. Those records are public, but they are organized by mapped location and record number — not by street address. We hold 1,406,970 of them and rebuild the index weekly, so you can start from an address instead.

Enter any Florida address and we return the wells recorded around it — wells are plotted from coordinates recorded by the permitting district or county; coverage spans the ~36 Florida counties that publish well records as public data (the Tampa Bay, Orlando–Jacksonville, Fort Myers and Miami-Dade regions) — Broward, Palm Beach, Collier and the Panhandle counties keep their records offline and are not yet included. Within the covered counties, most wells carry precise permit coordinates; a subset of Southwest Florida (SWFWMD) permits were filed without a mapped location, so those wells are counted in the county-level statistics but do not appear in the address/map lookup (we omit them rather than plot a placeholder point).

Not every filed report carries every field — older records are thinner, and what the state captured changed over the decades. This is the real coverage across all 1,406,970 records, so you know what to expect before you search.
| Field | What it tells you | Records with it | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Date completed | When the well was finished and the log filed. | 1,325,781 (94%) | |
| Original log document | A direct link to the FL WMD/county copy of the filed log itself. | 1,274,161 (91%) | |
| Total depth | How deep the hole was drilled, in feet. | 1,226,771 (87%) | |
| Mapped location | Coordinates, so the log can be found by address instead of by record number. | 1,206,227 (86%) | |
| Driller | The licensed company that drilled the well and signed the log. | 1,164,418 (83%) | |
| Street address | A street address on the filed report (varies a lot by state and era). | 1,098,093 (78%) | |
| Static water level | How far below the surface the water stood at rest. | 856,848 (61%) | |
| Tested yield | Gallons per minute the well produced on the driller’s pump test. | 23,767 (2%) |
How this differs from going to FL WMD directly
Nothing here replaces the official record, and for a single well you already have the record number for, FL WMD is the place to go (www.floridadep.gov/water/water-well-construction). What this site adds is the part that is hard from the source data:
- An address is enough. You do not need a record number, a section-township-range, or a latitude to start. Wells are plotted from coordinates recorded by the permitting district or county; coverage spans the ~36 Florida counties that publish well records as public data (the Tampa Bay, Orlando–Jacksonville, Fort Myers and Miami-Dade regions) — Broward, Palm Beach, Collier and the Panhandle counties keep their records offline and are not yet included. Within the covered counties, most wells carry precise permit coordinates; a subset of Southwest Florida (SWFWMD) permits were filed without a mapped location, so those wells are counted in the county-level statistics but do not appear in the address/map lookup (we omit them rather than plot a placeholder point).
- The neighbours, not just the well. Buyers and lenders care what depth and yield are normal nearby, which means reading many records at once, not one.
- The same statistics everywhere. Median depth, static water level and yield are computed identically in every county, so two counties can actually be compared. The exact filters are on the methodology page.
- The original is always one click away. 1,274,161 of our records carry a direct link to the FL WMD/county copy of the filed log itself.

Common questions
With FL WMD/county — Florida's water-management districts and county well-permitting programs. Every Florida driller files a completion report there for each well drilled, and that filing is the authoritative copy of the record. The official site is www.floridadep.gov/water/water-well-construction.
Not directly — well records are filed against a mapped location and a record number, not a mailing address, which is the single most common reason people give up on the search. That is exactly the gap this site fills: enter an address on our free lookup and we return the recorded wells around that point, wells are plotted from coordinates recorded by the permitting district or county; coverage spans the ~36 Florida counties that publish well records as public data (the Tampa Bay, Orlando–Jacksonville, Fort Myers and Miami-Dade regions) — Broward, Palm Beach, Collier and the Panhandle counties keep their records offline and are not yet included. Within the covered counties, most wells carry precise permit coordinates; a subset of Southwest Florida (SWFWMD) permits were filed without a mapped location, so those wells are counted in the county-level statistics but do not appear in the address/map lookup (we omit them rather than plot a placeholder point).
No, and it is not meant to be. This is an independent index built from the data FL WMD publishes, rebuilt weekly. Every well we show links back to its own FL WMD/county record, so you can always open the original filed log. If our copy and the state's ever disagree, the state's is right.
Our current copy holds 1,406,970 records across 47 counties, with completion dates from 1920 to 2026. That is everything FL WMD/county publishes in its bulk record set as of 2026-08-14. Wells drilled before the state's filing requirement — and hand-dug or unpermitted wells — were never filed anywhere, so they are in neither copy.
Searching by address here is free, the same as searching FL WMD/county is free. What we charge for is the compiled property report — every recorded well near one address, with the statistics and the original log links, as one printable document for a sale or a loan file. That is $29.
The property report pulls every recorded well near an address — depths, water levels, yields, drillers , and links to each original filed log — as one printable summary for due diligence.
