Thinking about moving to Ocala from Richmond,VA for work.

Is it a good idea? Small place?

Does anyone know anything about Ocala?

Housing? Nightlife?
I know its a small area and an hour North of Orlando.

Is Ocala Diverse at all? Food, People ...etc

Are there many good places that people in there mid 20's hang out? Bar's, Clubs or just any type place that people in 20's hang?
Are there many young people even in Ocala? ...with the minimal population

I take from these couple replies that there are no young people in Ocala and it's just a small town with nothing there really? Is that right? and no diversity?

Wesley Snipes has his tax fraud case starting today in Ocala and he's very nervous about getting a fair trial there b/c of the lack of diversity there. He wanted it moved to Orlando or New York. Ocala is still very 'old south', I'm sure it has changed some but for someone wanting a diverse, young atmosphere...it would not be a good choice.
