We have been here over 12 years.
I f we had it to do over again, we surely would. With one exception, I would buy more tha a couple more homes here.

Talk about too much traffic?
I guess that depends where you are from. Traffic always moves along; a little busy during what some would call a rush hour. And maybe a little busier when the folks who live north get here. Being retired, there is no hurry.

We have watched TV more than triple in size since 2004.
We have also watched as TV attained a population size that was attractive to major national chains, food and retail.

In 2004 there was no Arnold Palmer CC, no Lake Sumter Square, no Home Depot, no Rolling Acres shopping center, no Kohls, almost none of the major restaurant changes, etc.

So the growth has been good. The way TV is planned with a sort of decentralized mail, pool and rec center location most close in needs are attended to within a few minutes from the house.

If one is flexible on when or where to play golf one will always get a t time. Restaurants....once past the early bird diners, there is no problem.

We enjoy TV as much as day one 12 years ago.
Ya see we are retired and we are not in a hurry!!!
