Do remember that Marion County includes Ocala and many rural areas. From what I have heard and seen, the sheriff's response time in all three counties is pretty good (within 5 minutes most of the time) in TV.
When the woman shot her husband a few years ago in Marion County, a neighbor of theirs told me the police were there almost immediately -- probably less than a minute. I'm sure that if the issue is a theft the response time is going to be when they have time since there is no immediacy.
This is definitely one of those instances where the Morses make a difference -- they contribute heavily to all local police, sheriff and emergency departments. I'm sure this helps insure quick as possible response times.
