About this community

On Top of the World in Ocala, Florida, is a 55-plus active-adult residential community centered on homes and shared recreation. The Ocala development began in 1981, after land was purchased in 1975. Circle Square Ranch, an operational cattle ranch, surrounds the community. Homes are grouped in neighborhoods that include Longleaf Ridge, Balfour and Weybourne Landing, with recreation and gathering places serving the wider residential community.

Available housing forms include villas and single-family homes. Residents can select maintenance-included or owner-maintained arrangements, depending on how much home upkeep they want to handle. The official material describes new-build homes with steel-reinforced concrete-block construction and energy-efficiency features. Published housing information centers on home designs and neighborhoods rather than apartment floor plans. Central Owners Association resources include orientation, modification and compliance guidance, and home-warranty information for move-in and property-related procedures.

More than 175 resident clubs, alongside social and service organizations, provide varied ways to participate. Interests include arts, fitness, travel and social activities; specific examples include woodworking, theater, genealogy and pickleball. Resident clubs also organize travel and enrichment programs. The calendar includes concerts, parties, happy hours and other gatherings, ranging from regular interest groups to larger events. Fitness classes and club competitions offer additional ways to take part.

Recreation facilities include a golf club with three courses totaling 54 holes, a Recreation Center with a pool, and separate Arbor Fitness and Recreation Fitness centers. Multiple pools and aquatic facilities are also listed, along with sports courts, pickleball and softball. Organized offerings include fitness classes, pickleball leagues, tennis tournaments and golf competitions. Dog parks provide another outdoor option, and an on-site salon and spa is also listed. Together, the facilities support exercise, sports and leisure activities.

Several named venues serve as places to gather or attend events. The Lodge at Candler Hills is identified as a clubhouse or amenity center, while Circle Square Cultural Center is an event venue for performing arts. The Pub is another named venue, and on-site dining venues are listed. These places complement the resident clubs and scheduled social events with settings for organized programs, performances and meals.

The Central Owners Association maintains practical information on garbage and recycling, including collection locations and accepted recyclable materials, as well as Marion County watering restrictions. It also provides approved plant palettes and exterior color palettes for homes scheduled for repainting. These references, alongside modification and compliance resources, cover routine property matters such as landscaping, exterior changes and household waste. Separate resident-services, orientation and home-warranty resources address other parts of settling into and maintaining a home.
