I think you have more freedoms in Florida than we do in Virginia

“Hello, I just read a letter from someone who moved to Marion Oaks and the person was disturbed by others’ outdoors animals. I honestly would consider it a blessing to have the freedom to have fresh eggs, and I miss the sounds of roosters crowing at dawn. Where I live used to be a lot like that, and now with all the HOAs and regulations, people can’t even put up a picket fence, shed, or even a plant in their own yard without the neighbors approval. Maybe talk to your neighbor and find a common ground, or move somewhere where you have enough property to not have neighbors. The reason the person is complaining is the reason Florida actually attracts a lot of people from other areas not as fortunate. There are many places in states like Virginia that are so highly regulated already. They cost a fortune and restrict your freedoms.” – A resident of Virginia shares her opinion about Ocala, Marion County, and Florida.
