Crestview sits on the Florida Panhandle at the junction of three major highways, earning the nickname of the “Hub City” of Northwest Florida. Crestview is known for its convenience to multiple military installations, including Eglin Air Force Base, Duke Field Air Force Reserves Base, Hurlburt Field Air Force Base, and the U.S. Army Seventh Special Forces Group.

Crestview’s close proximity to military installations has been the catalyst for recent growth, making Crestview one of Florida’s fastest growing cities. Despite rapid growth, Crestview has managed to maintain a small-town feel. Crestview’s historic downtown hosts an array of community events such as the Triple B: Blackwater, Bluegrass, and BBQ Cook-off, Old Spanish Trail Car Show, and the Fall Festival. The surrounding area’s natural amenities are ideal for outdoor recreation, with Blackwater River State Forest to the north, Emerald Coast beaches to the south, the Yellow River to the west, and the Shoal River to the east.
