The official elevation of Citrus Hills is 115 ft. Official elevation of The Villages is 52 ft. That's only 53 ft different. I'm sure there are parts of both that are higher and lower. Highest elevation in the state is 345 ft, up in the panhandle near De Funiak Springs.
The adiabatic lapse rate for temperature change with elevation is 4 degrees F for each 1000 ft. Even if parts of Citrus Hills are actually 250 ft higher, the average difference in temperature would only be 1 degree.
