In considering all available options to purchase we have looked at new homes on the TV website in both the Pine Hills and Pine Ridge areas. My concerns regarding this area are the marginally higher tax rate and the fact that 3/4 of this area is surrounded by land not under the ownership/control of the developer.

What are your opinions as to what may be built in the areas surrounding Pine Hills/Ridge? Would you exclude this area from consideration? I have seen posts from some of you that live in this area and you seem quite pleased with it. Any thoughts any of you may have would be appreciated. Thank you.
You should visit here in February when the population doubles and see if you like not being able to enjoy the wonderful amenities the Villages offers because its so crowded. This would be what you really should consider.
