I counted hundreds of cigarette butts in a short distance, along with empty water bottles and smashed pop cans, among other things.
This is disappointing. I have also noticed very unfriendly workers in restaurants. I am wondering if moving here was a bad idea!
Since you did not say where you saw all this trash, I am going to assume you moved into a new area where there is a lot of construction happening.
Those of un "North" of you experienced this during construction. A lot of busy people are moving around and some have bad habits of tossing stuff out the window of their trucks. This will all correct itself(it did in my village) when the construction stops.
If encountering a few unfriendly workers is a new experience (did you not have similar types where you came from) and makes you feel it was a bad idea to move to The Villages....................you have more of a problem than any poster can help you with.
