What it's like to live in Citra?
The Local Vibe (Location & Identity)
Located in northern Marion County, Citra serves as a quiet agricultural corridor between the employment hubs of Ocala and Gainesville. This unincorporated community is defined by its sprawling horse farms and historic citrus groves, maintaining a low-density residential profile. Most households here consist of established families or retirees who prioritize acreage and a slower pace over urban density.
Living Here: Amenities & Lifestyle
Life here revolves around the outdoors and the region's deep agricultural roots. Residents often visit The Orange Shop, a local landmark since 1936, for seasonal produce and citrus. For recreation, the nearby Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park offers a glimpse into Florida’s literary and natural history. Fishing and boating are popular at Citra Pond, while the vast trails of the Ocala National Forest are a short drive to the east. Because the community remains largely rural, major grocery runs and medical appointments typically require a 20-minute commute south to Ocala or north to Gainesville via US-301. This reliance on neighboring cities for commercial needs is a standard trade-off for the privacy found in Citra new home communities.
Schools & Family Appeal
Students in the area attend Marion County Public Schools, with many zoned for North Marion Middle School and North Marion High School. The community also benefits from the proximity of the Marion County Public Library System’s Fort McCoy and Ocala branches. Families are often drawn here by the opportunity for larger lot sizes that are increasingly rare in more developed parts of the county.
Why New Construction Makes Sense Here
Much of the existing housing stock in this rural area consists of older farmhouses or mobile homes that may require significant updates to meet modern building codes. Choosing new construction homes in Citra provides immediate peace of mind through 10-year structural warranties and the latest hurricane-resistant construction standards. Buyers can avoid the immediate capital expenditures often associated with aging roofs or outdated HVAC systems found in the area's historic properties. These modern builds also offer the benefit of contemporary insulation, which is vital for managing cooling costs during the intense Florida summers. For those needing a faster transition, quick move-in homes in Citra allow for a seamless move without the unpredictability of a renovation project.
