I have found the best of all worlds in Ocala. Ocala is 80,000 people so all of the necessities are there and just about 1 of every major restaurant. I live in true horse country on the outskirts of town. My offices are 20 minutes away. There is truly zero traffic. Orlando, Jax, and Tampa are all 90 minutes away. There is no real crime here. Affordable housing and property taxes. UF is 45 minutes away. So many awesome springs to play in. Beach is just close enough. World class yet affordable golf (we are talking 15 bucks in the summer). My 2 biggest complaints are flying in/out and no real local food scene. We finally got a local brewery.
