So does this mean more cars, more exhaust and pollution, more driving, maybe some traffic signals, maybe a lot of traffic and so here we go.
Take a wonderful setting and turn it into another LA or Boston or?????????????

The population density of Boston is about 13,000 per square mile. Los Angeles is about 23,000 people per square mile. The Villages is a bit over 3,000. I think that it will be a long time before we become anything like Boston or L.A..
In fact the reason for high population densities is multiple unit dwellings. The places with the highest population densities are covered with apartment building and tenements. I don't ever see that happening here.
