Hamilton County is located in North Central Florida, with Georgia forming its northern border. Its county seat is Jasper. The county (often called a peninsula within a peninsula) is separated from the rest of Florida by the Withlacoochee River on the west and the beautiful Suwannee River to the east and south.

The county has a total area of 519 square miles, of which 514 square miles is land and 5.3 square miles (1.0%) is water.
