Florida Shooters Network

As long as you can live by the rules I have no problem. Like you said these are in place to keep the area nice. I just believe people should be informed about them. Which many are not.That's all.

Both the realtor and title company should disclose that

I live just north of Dunnellon on the west side of 41 in Rainbow Lakes Estates.
Nice community, minimal rules and regs, no Nazi homeowners association. Small and large lots, some older homes some newer, vacant never built on properties available. Nice clubhouse, free gym for residents( all new equipment), nice dock and lake for boating and fishing.
I live in a real nice 1980s built 3 bedroom, 2 bath, all tile, two car garage, newer roof, privacy fence, a/c inclosed Florida porch/room ( reloading/music room), nice back porch with roof no inclosure or screens, sprinkler system, St. Augustine grass. Backyards a small paradise IMO and the wifes too.

I love it. Just far enough away from Dunnellon but close enough for groceries, hardware, restaurants etc.

You may want to check it out. Neat little community, even has a gas station/jiffy store if you run out of bread, milk, beer etc. and a small Bar-B-Que restaurant.

I use this to check crime in an area

BoerBoelGuy/LoanDr here since 04. OK this my area and RE it for the last few decades, $$$'s in D going UP as the younger crew that can no longer afford OC moving that direction, have been focusing on builds and sales in that area as picking slim in OC accordingly. Holler if i can help.

NOT an agent! Just investor here since 99.

Dunellon is generally rural and you by no means need to live in a restricted community, most people up this way don't. Economy is low wage jobs and retired folk, no major industries and most work rural jobs, farming, etc. or work in Ocala, Gainesville, The Villages, etc. Great fishing, really great tubing in Rainbow Springs, and very few decent restaurants.

Crime is relegated to drugs and domestic for the most part, if you're not in those worlds you don't have to worry. Land can be quite cheap. I moved to Floral City, southern end of Citrus County where Dunellon is northern end, when I retired from Naples because I got 3 BR, 2BA house on 2.5 acres for less than one fifth of what the same size house on 1/10th acre in the City of Naples sold for. And that house got bulldozed to put up a $1.2 million mini-mansion. Nice having no mortgage payment.

Tell them to come up and visit, get a room for a few days and look around. Stop in to the local restaurants and diners and see if they like it. It's not for everyone.
