It is truly one of the benefits of TV...it matters little whether your home is $700,000 or $75,000 the residents are entitled to all of the same amenities.
It's what The Villages is all about. There is "something" for just about everyone. For sure, you don't have to be "rich" (a relative term) to live here and enjoy the lifestyle. I think that is what the founders of The Villages had in mind from the very beginning.
