24/7 Biohazard Cleanup Near North Midway Midway, FL

Midway is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in southern Santa Rosa County, stretched along U.S. Highway 98 on the Fairpoint Peninsula between Gulf Breeze and Navarre — not to be confused with the incorporated city of Midway in Gadsden County.

The peninsula Midway occupies is squeezed between Pensacola Bay to the north and Santa Rosa Sound, the route of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, to the south.

Midway had a population of 19,567 at the 2020 census, up more than 21% from 16,115 in 2010; it first appeared as a census-designated place in the 2010 census.

The community developed mainly in the mid-20th century as a bedroom community for Pensacola and the military installations around it, and it has kept growing as subdivisions spread east from Gulf Breeze.

Midway Water Systems, Inc., headquartered in the community, supplies water not just to Midway but to the neighboring communities of Gulf Breeze and Navarre as well, and the community is protected by its own Midway Fire Department.

Pensacola State College's South Santa Rosa campus is located in Midway, and area students attend schools including Woodlawn Beach Middle School, East Bay K-8 and Soundside High School.

Midway's VFW Bruce J. Bell Memorial Post 4407 is locally billed as the "Friendliest Little Post in Florida."

The smaller Woodlawn Beach census-designated place is entirely surrounded by the Midway CDP.

Midway is part of the Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent metropolitan area, keeps Central Time, and uses area code 850.
