- Florida Legislature, Office of Economic and Demographic Research (EDR), from Annual Financial Reports filed with the Department of Financial Services: Florida Office of Economic and Demographic Research, Expenditures and Revenues Reported by Florida's County and Municipal Governments. Lag: A local fiscal year ends September 30; the Annual Financial Report is due to the Department of Financial Services nine months later, and EDR tabulates the reports over the following year, so a fiscal year is usually published one to two years after it ends. Retrieved 2026-10-01. Real figures are deflated by the fiscal year average of the US Bureau of Labor Statistics South Region consumer price index; per resident figures use the population EDR prints with each year.
