We have been here going on 10 years and can't think of anything better. Spent about 10 years living on the beach in Florida long time in New York so have a good feel for different locations. New York is to earn income to live in sun, beach is fun but can be boring after a year or so and The Villages are great year around. Best move we ever made and would do it again in a heart beat! If your bored or unhappy you have serious problems and may want to consider therapy.
