Welcome to On Top of the World

The retirement community in Florida of On Top of the World Communities is an award-winning, family owned building and land development company. Founded in 1947 by patriarch, the late Sidney Colen. In 1975, he brought the family experience and vision of building the perfect retirement community to Ocala, Florida. With the purchase of Circle Square Ranch, a continually working cattle ranch to this day, the Colen’s passion for creativity in land development arrived in Central Florida. Kenneth Colen, Sidney’s son, grew up in the business and has led On Top of the World Communities since 1981. On Top of the World retirement community in Florida remains the oldest, privately owned land developer in the state.
