FAQ – Utilities in Alachua County
We use base charges and per-unit rates from official provider and municipal sources for each city in Alachua County. Electric often references Florida Power & Light (FPL) tariff or Florida PSC comparative statistics where applicable; water, sewer, and trash use city, county, or authority rate schedules. Each city page shows assumed usage (kWh, gallons) and source links.
In Florida, unincorporated county utility systems, special districts, and municipal utilities can bill very differently—even inside the same county. Trash may be city-contracted, county solid waste, or private subscription. Always match your bill to the provider named on the statement.
Each city page shows a 'last verified' date and links to official sources. County overview pages include additional sources for unincorporated service areas. Confirm current rates on the provider's or government's website before making decisions.
