Unlike humid South Florida, the region surrounding the Villages of Citrus Hills doesn’t have the Everglades water effect. We instead sit on the Central Ridge. At 260 feet above sea level, the Villages of Citrus Hills benefits from the breezes off the nearby Gulf of Mexico, keeping the climate temperate all year round.

Citrus County’s year-round average temperature is 70 degrees with lower humidity than the hot Florida South! In fact, comfortable days are the norm. We enjoy 274 days a year in the “comfort zone,” which falls between 65 and 75 degrees. It also means you won’t spend the whole summer hiding from the heat in your air-conditioned home.
