I know about staying away from glass windows and near supporting walls. As many of the houses in TV are similar in design, I thought there might be a recommended location for a particular house design in this planned community. The man who I contacted at the Villages Public Safety department did not know of any such recommendations.
I suggested that he talk to others about creating a plan for tornadoes that would direct Villagers to the safest location in that particular house design. As I am still new, do others know of such a study? Please don’t say that recommendations can’t be made because of liability concerns. Safety should come first.

This is one of the better posts on this site! Do to the fact there are no cellars in these homes and you won't have much of a reaction time, were do you go? After reading the responses I will consider the walk-in closet or the laundry room, but I will continue to follow this post for additional recommendations.
