I am not a realtor wanting to sell you a home in Chiefland so let me tell you just how it is without any ulterior motive. Yes Chiefland is quaint and laid back, politics in Levy county is very good ol boy style. There is virtually no employment in Chiefland and the unemployment rate is high. Yes Gainesville and Ocala are close, 45 and 55 miles respectively so unless you ride a motorcycle commuting could get very expensive. Chiefland is in the heart of the bible belt. Plenty of country around but is predominately a trailer city. Property is relatively inexpensive though. Don't be fooled by all the realtors talk of "approved" hospital or near the site of the new "approved" power plant or the latest one the site of the "proposed" college (community college) as none of these have even started to break ground and their future existence isn't etched in stone it just makes the area sound more promising. Good luck! Care to get more info email me. I have lived there for over 14 years. jfoster680@yahoo.com - Wed Jul 8 2009, 12:47
