Chipley is located in Washington County east of Pensacola between Bonifay and Marianna along Interstate 10 near the Choctawhatchee River and the Alabama state line.In 1882, the community of Orange was founded and renamed Chipley. It was the year the Pensacola & Atlantic (later L & N) Railroad was completed beyond the town site. A huge fire, believed to be of incendiary origin, leveled most of Chipley's business district on May 14, 1898. The great fire destroyed and decimated thirty-five buildings that were reduced to ashes while Chipley was less than 20 years old. Today, Chipley has been fully restored, as well as having a beautiful historic district that is loaded with various thriving business.
