Hello, I’m Leo Longworth, a State Farm agent serving Bartow, FL and the surrounding communities. My focus has always been helping people prepare for everyday life with coverage that fits how they live. From Auto Insurance that helps protect the vehicles you rely on, to Homeowners Insurance for the place where your life happens, I enjoy working with individuals and families to review options that align with their needs. I also assist with Life Insurance to help support loved ones, Renters Insurance for those just getting started, Condo Insurance for shared‐structure living, Business Insurance for local owners looking to protect what they’ve built, and Pet Insurance to help care for four‐legged family members. As your local Bartow insurance agent, I’ve been part of this community for decades. Since August 1987, my office has been a resource for Bartow, Davenport, Fort Meade, Lakeland, Mulberry, Winter Haven, and nearby areas. I work closely with families and business owners to walk through coverage options at a comfortable pace, making sure everything makes sense and reflects real‐life situations, whether that’s protecting a growing household, a daily commute, or a small business rooted in the community. Before becoming a State Farm agent, I worked in a federally funded employment program where I helped people develop skills and find direction in their careers. I’m also a proud veteran of the United States Army and completed a tour of duty in Vietnam. Giving back locally has always mattered to me, which is why I’ve stayed involved in Bartow through service on multiple city boards and by serving as mayor on different occasions. Those experiences continue to shape how I show up for the people I work with every day. Outside the office, I enjoy listening to music, spending time on the golf course, reading and supporting local events around town. If you’d like to talk through your coverage or visit us in person, I invite you to stop by the office or give us a call for a personalized quote.
