I agree! As the Villages is growing very fast it seems like our amenities are going up very slowly or will be going up very slowly. If whoever want the Villages to keep growing & they're the ones making lots & lots of money they ought to be not raising the amenities to keep making them rich because one of these days as things keep getting older & older some one is going to have to be shelling out more money to keep everything in tip top shape & just like every other community around the country that have these housing developments that lure people into there communities, eventually they back out of the community & pass the maintenance onto the owners or they get some slum lord to buy it. Right now the bigger it gets the closer I'm getting not to want to live here. But right now it's like someone said it's like Disneyland here for retirees & a lot of fun, but like the old saying, "Everything come to an end sooner or later".
