Moving to West Coast of Florida
I have read a number of entries regarding the pros and cons of Royal Highlands and I'm a little confused about the layout of the area. My husband and I moving down in January from coastal NC - I will be working in Ybor City and he will be at Crystal River so we are hoping to be somewhere in between which sounds about right for this area. We are not at all familiar with the area so any information would be appreciated!! We are not familiar with the limerock either and did not see any specifics addressed here. Can somebody enlighten me? We do like the idea of a more "country living" environment as we are pretty rural here.

West Coast of Florida is nicer than the East Coast. You have whiter sand beaches also cleaner beaches. Its so beautiful on the west coast of florida. People are very friendly.

Ybor City and Crystal River, as in Citrus County? Yowsa! That is a helluva commute.
I would think somewhere in east Pasco or Hernando County would be in between AND rural. That commute will be a killer either way. I commuted for a semester from Spring Hill (Hernando County) to USF (North side of Tampa). It took me an hour one way and that was down US41. This was in 1983 before the Suncoast Parkway (toll) was built. Maybe someone can provide more current data on commute times.
Limerock? What about limerock?
Royal Highlands is a 55 and older community in Lake County. I just googled it. Lake County is too far northeast to make a commute to Ybor doable. Crystal River wouldn't be too bad from there.
You may want to post in the Tampa forum.

I take that back about the commute from Lake County to Crystal River. I just looked at a map. You would be driving across half the state to get there.

Royal Highlands is in Hernando County between SR 50 and US98 and the OP posted once 15 months ago, I really don't think she is going to read these replies.

Yikes-I did not notice the date from the OP.
When I googled Royal Highlands the website said it was in Lake County. I guess you can't believe everything you read on the internet!

I am sure there could be another development called Rpyal Highlands in Lake County.
Judging from the other info I would say she is talking about the one in north Hernando though.
