Ocala Overview

A recent winner of the coveted 'All-American City' award, Ocala is located in Marion County in the Sunshine State of Florida. Boasting numerous amenities typical of a much larger city, this charming slice of southern hospitality is an excellent option for anyone on the hunt for a new place to live, work and play.

What is the history of Ocala?

"Established in 1849 and loosely translated to mean 'Kingdom of the Sun', Ocala was initially an agricultural hub. By 1881 train service had helped grow the exports of the region as well as its local population, and despite a fire that ravaged the town a short time later, Ocala continued to expand, largely with new structures comprised of stone and brick. Horse farming swept through the city in the 1940s, and those living in Ocala apartments will be proud to know they are one of only five cities to claim the title of 'Horse Capital of the World"". Today, the city acts as home to close to 50,000 residents."

How is the weather in Ocala?

A pair of distinct seasons dominate the weather patterns in this florida city, with the wet season running from June - September and the dry season covering October to May.

Interstate 75 is far and away the most prominent mjor roadway in the city limits, and can see its fair share of slow conditions. U.S. Routes 27 and 301 are both reached with ease as well, and a number of smaller roadways such as State Road 200 offer 'scenic routes' that can help bypass sluggish conditions. 

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Ocala Star-Banner' is a local print news favorite, and radio is a mix of college indie rock favorites, modern hip-hop and classic country tunes. Sporting news and talk radioa re also in high supply, with Ocala rentals privvy to a world of broadcast television options at their fingertips as well.

The Fort King National Historic Park boasts impressive wooden architecture, and the Howey Mansion is as glorious as its moniker would imply.
