On Top of the World offers a strong community for adults 55 and over
On Top of the World is a large section in west Marion County comprised of three distinct communities: On Top of the World, a 55-plus neighborhood; Stone Creek, another, smaller 55-plus neighborhood; and a collection of small, residential communities in Ocala’s horse country, including Ocala Estates, Rainbow Park, York and Fellowship. On Top of the World, the largest of the communities, is gated and divided into several neighborhoods. Homes are two- and three-bedroom, ranch-style and built in the 1980s and 1990s.

Two-bedroom condos cost between $120,000 and $160,000, and two-bedroom townhouses range from $110,000 to $265,000. HOA fees run from $300 to $500 and vary between subdivisions.
