Citra is old citrus-and-horse country at the county’s north edge — here’s what defines it:
A 12,500-acre bass-fishing lake on the Marion–Alachua line, dotted with fish camps and floating islands.
Citra’s rolling pastures form part of the world-class thoroughbred-breeding belt north of Ocala.
The town was named for its orange groves, a legacy that gave the famous Pineapple orange its local fame.
The neighboring hamlet to the south, a marker of Citra’s farm-country setting.
Citra is part of Marion County in the Orlando metro. Explore the map, then ask Lina to pull listings in any pocket you like.
Citra is land country — the market leans heavily to horse farms, cattle acreage, and large rural lots, with lakefront homes on Orange Lake forming a distinct waterfront segment. In-town housing is limited and modest. It’s a place buyers come for space rather than subdivisions.
Farm acreage and lakefront price on very different terms, so ask Lina for today’s median, per-acre comps, and active listings in the part of Citra you’re considering.
