Hello all, this is my first post on this site. I find the wide range of comments to be very informative.My wife and I have been interested in The Villages for quite some time now and have visited TV several times over the past ten years and enjoyed each visit more than the last. It was really hard leaving TV each time and returning to the old grind. We probably shouldn't have visited at all until we were old enough to retire. My wife and I will both retire in June and we are stepping up our interest in TV and this site has been a wonderful source of information. We really appreciate the honest comments that are posted on this site. We need to hear the non sugar coated, real people comments that are posted here. I have read about hidden expenses involved with living in TV. Can anyone shed a little light on this? Also, what are sink holes? As far as I know we don't have those in Ohio. Are there places in TV where sink holes are more of a problem than other areas? Thanks for the info.
