Most places I've looked at want about $1,800/mo during the off season and about $3,600/mo during peak season!! I certainly can't afford that after I quit working (or even now while I do work).
I agree that rental homes can be pricey in The Villages, especially during high season.
There are many other communities which are less expensive.
