I know that is not the case from talking to many Villagers and seeing how much they are still involved with their home towns as well as with various relatives especially their grand kids. Andrew D. Blechman - author of LEISUREVILLE and PIGEONS

One of the Clint Eastwood movies that seemed beloved in the Villages also comes to mind-- Gran Torino*(2009) - Rotten Tomatoes
Involvement is not a bad thing, instigating or supporting drama, to me, is. I also believe that the reason many are not involved in The Villages is they are very happy and satisfied on how this place is being managed. From my experience, the disgruntled are the minority.
