Have lived in Florida most of my life. Citrus trees are very slow growing and take at least 5 years to get meaningful amount of fruit. Subject to diseases and if there is a long cold spell can get killed by freeze. In the 60' most of the area in and around Clermont were large orange groves. Most of the trees were killed off during cold winters(developers got the balance of them) If you want citrus good luck and have a lot of patience.
