Hogtown Creek

Hogtown Creek is a small creek that is located in Gainesville, Florida. It begins in the Hogtown Creek watershed area that encompasses 21 square miles across both natural and developed areas of land. Water seeps into the ground in the pine barrens and fern-covered wetlands, where the creek begins to form. Out of the 21 square miles of its drainage basin area, only 20% remains in its natural state. 65% of land was converted to low-density residential areas, and 15% of the land was converted to commercial districts.

The creek flows through the Hogtown Creek Prairie and recharges a nearby Floridian aquifer via Haile Sink.
