The following is a list of county roads in Sumter County, Florida. All county roads are maintained by the county in which they reside; however, only a fraction are marked with standard MUTCD-approved county road shields.
Most rural roads in Sumter County have been assigned county road numbers rather than names. Few of these are included in the list; most routes below are former state roads.
County Road 44A exists along the north side of State Road 44 in Wildwood and Orange Home, and was formerly designated as SR 44A. The road begins southeast of the interchange with Interstate 75, and instantly intersects with CR 225, which runs north and south, while CR 44A runs directly east and west until it curves slightly to the right and becomes Kilgore Street. The road then moves south onto Central Avenue running parallel to the CSX line until reaching Lynum Street, and crosses the tracks until Lynum Street terminates at US 301. County Road 44A then not only crosses US 301 to enter Huey Street, but the wye for the former Leesburg and Tavares railroad line. One block away, CR 44A breaks away from Huey Street and curves south before running along the north side of the right-of-way of the previously mentioned abandoned railroad line. The line contained a series of abandoned freight cars until the 2000s (decade), and the road and railroad line followed each other until CR 44A terminates at a recreational vehicle park in Orange Home.
County Road 48 is two different former segments of Florida State Road 48. It runs from US 41 in Floral City, but doesn't enter Sumter County until it crosses the bridge over Withlacoochee River where it enters the unrecognized community of Bay Hill. The road passes an RV camp on the river and then the intersection with CR 575. From there it winds through the swampland and farmland of southwestern Sumter County, through Wahoo, briefly becoming a state road at Interstate 75's Exit 314 in Bushnell.
