About homes and winters in area code 352
Area code 352 covers North Central Florida, from Ocala and Gainesville to The Villages, Spring Hill, Clermont and the towns between them. Much of it is newer: of roughly 799,000 homes and apartments, about 36% were built in 2000 or later and the median home dates from the 1990s, though 26% still predate 1980. About 66% are single-family detached houses.
Ocala is the county seat of Marion County, in North Central Florida. The Ocala metropolitan area had about 442,660 people in 2025, and Gainesville, home of the University of Florida, sits just to the north.
Winters are mild. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Gainesville Regional Airport, FL show about 1,139 heating degree days a year, a January average of 54.8°F.
The most common way to heat a home here is electricity (about 87% of occupied homes, per the Census), followed by utility gas at about 9.9%. Wood is the main heat in fewer than 2 in 100 homes, so most fireplaces here are for cool evenings, and gas fireplaces and inserts are common. Energy codes place it in IECC climate zone 2A. NFPA 211, the national chimney and venting standard, recommends an inspection every year no matter what you burn.
