I don't recall any Villages "Lore" about people drawn here because they had lost their drivers licenses from driving drunk and could then drive golf carts because they required no drivers license. . That seems to be as off the mark as the STD stories. I guess it depends who is spreading rumors and to whom and where you hear or read things. There has been a lot of incorrect information about The Villages in public media, and on Forums.
Most of what sticks in my mind is advertising The Villages as golf cart friendly which would make sense since Golf is very important to a huge majority of people moving here.
I think driving a golf cart to most needed destinations is a huge draw. It is thought to be fun and convenient and different to many people looking for a place to retire.
What percentage of folks who have lost their licenses could there be in the population who can afford to move here?
