Why not buy in a community that currently doesn't offer anything and not pay a fee? OK, that's an extreme view but for those of us looking forward to retirement and all the things we'll be doing in the community we buy into, can we still be happy thinking about a future in TV? yes, I'm asking you all to look into the crystal ball and come up with an answer. : )

Well, consider that houses in TV are generally more expensive than for similar houses in other nearby retirement communities. The reason promoted is that "you are not buying a house, you are buying the lifestyle." If the lifestyle significantly deteriorates, the reason for paying more in TV goes away.
