Which means getting involved in the community which is something vacationers/ renters don't do. We are looking forward to our new adventure.

I use to have a beach condo in Cape May, NJ. The population was 5,000 but went up to 50,000 in the summer, a completely different experience.
In the villages it's not too different
to me from one season to the next. Getting a tee off time for 4 is tough. Rounding out a foresome, not that bad.
I wouldn't worry too much about keeping the community on track, you will be too busy.
