Love my hometown dunnellon. Your not wrong about the big city people...they want to take our way of life to turn it into a city. We have a garbage company

We bought an acre just north of town, the house build is supposed to start this month. We did the whole spreadsheet thing then visited the top cities. Dunnellon won. Thanks for the videos, you've really helped us! Stay healthy.

its a great little area, i'd build a house there too. only disappointing thing is how people moving out here bring their big city attitudes with them.. they could have left that where they came from.

Nice ... looks like a quiet place to retire...especially for fishing off season... wil add Dunnellen to my list. Thanks for the tour guys. OP

Hey 👋 I used to live in Dunnellon! And I remember Chatmire 😁 that's where you would go to get various things. 😁 I love the area though

Hey Jose & Katie, thanks so much for these videos. Im actually gonna be moving down to Saint Pete area by next summer and have been scouting around the rural areas (Dunnellon, Salt Springs, Polk City, etc) for land to start building a homestead. These really help alot. Also, Im from Philly but laid back, and tired of the city rudeness and daily grind. I dig old FL!

North Florida still has some laid back areas. Your videos are excellent.

My friends moved there. Thanks for showing me what this place is like

Been out in Dunnellon part time sense 07..bought in the mini farms off N.Citrus ave..close to the Crystal River side..very quiet out here..Originally from Miramar down south Fla..Love it here

This is great! Never been thru Dunnellon before. My husband has got to have the beach close by so this area wouldn’t do for him. I personally love the country areas of FL.

There's the Marion county dump just north of Rainbow Lakes estates. Burning or dumping is too convenient. I do agree a trash service would help. But people still dump trash regardless.

Nice tour of Florida

Looking to buy my mini horse ranch here soon, currently living in Anthony, FL. Anthony is nice, but after driving around Dunnellon, Anthony and Ocala are like a ghetto. I hope I can get a 2-5 acres horse zoned property for under $500K.

I live in Ocala ten minutes from there take garbage to the dump on 41its free that's why you pay taxes no need to burn unhealthy stuff I burn the cardboard and paper products great place to live yes we are retired and no paved roads where we live off 40 nice and guiet

Actually go down to the Damn. Past the lock. Tranquility there.

What's sad is the tourist that ruined the river every year. We locals can't use the river from March to Sept. Too many people too much trash.

even in my short time its got better. that place was sCARY as crap. good people there too. the locals are VERY RACIST that doesnt help the poor people living there improve.

Lake County CA is the same way. No garbage collection. In the avenues they fill old cars and boats with the garbage and it's an eyesore and stinks like hell.

I lived in Flagler Co. until I was 14 years old, my folks wanted to move back to N.C.. I've entertained moving to Fla. since retiring , but it has radically changed . The rudeness and culture change would be hard for me to deal with.

A lot of poor areas here in California in the San Joaquin and Sacramento Valleys as well as Southern California's Inland Empire are purposely excluded from nearby incorporated towns and some lack basic infrestructure (spelling?) and services. Many don't even have clean drinking water. Most are predominantly Latino communities but some are also predominantly Anglo, including many in the Sacramento valley and on the edge of the Mohave Desert. Oildale just outside of Bakersfield in the San Joaquin valley is birthplace of Country legend Merle Haggard and is still mainly white but also very poor and now also very crime ridden and incredibly run down. Many are just poor but quite and friendly places however.

They want to change things and recreate what they left.

Dunnellon is still my favorite place to live. Been all over Florida. I love tropical south florida, but living there is another story. I go down there a week out of the year. Was in the Keys recently. Still I love the Dunnellon area.
