That s what I hate the most, she said. It would have been such a lovely place.
And in many respects, much of Walton County will remain a lovely place, inasmuch as thousands of acres are protected from development as state forestlands, within the Nokuse Plantation private nature preserve, as parts of the sprawling Eglin Air Force Base reservation or as undevelopable wetlands.
At the same time, however, more and more people are looking at Walton County, particularly the south end along its beaches, as a place to live, work, retire or visit. U.S. Census figures show that the county s population grew by almost 20,000 people between 2010 and 2019 to more than 70,000. And the Walton County Tourist Development Council reported recently that for 2020, a year impacted by coronavirus-related travel restrictions and a relatively brief closure of vacation rental properties, nearly 4.5 million people visited the county.

FORT WALTON BEACH The city s website lists the Bay Drive Water Access as a neighborhood park, set aside for the public to enjoy as a location for passive recreation.
What was at one time a more expansive recreational area now consists of a single park bench overlooking a small swath of white sand fronting Choctawhatchee Bay that s about as wide as the roadway whose name it shares.
Many who live in the affluent neighborhood near where Brooks Street and Bay Drive meet have a great affinity for the water access. They say it offers a perfect location to launch kayaks and paddle boards or simply to take in a sunset. Some recall days spent at the beach, which they say has been listed as a recreational area since 1945, with children and grandchildren.
