Damn lies and statstics
According to a posting on msn.com, The Villages is one of the most stressed out places among U.S. cities.
3. THE VILLAGES, FLORIDA
> Total population: 114,350
> Poverty rate: 9.3%
> Avg. weekly hours worked: 39.3
> Unemployment rate: 7.7%
> Violent crime rate (per 100,000 people): 421
> Pct. of adults in fair/poor health: 14.8%
I flunked statistics and suspect the person who compiled these data did so too. Poverty? Yeah, no income other than savings and social security. Unemployment? Sure, we're mostly retired. Violent crime? Yeah, those damn line dancers again. Health? Well, I do see a lot of my neighbors at the doctor's. Comes with this time of life, doesn't it? Surely some surrounding communities were included. Our population isn't this high --- yet.
