This is something I often find and write up during warranty inspections. the Villages blows up to an R-30. While this is code compliant, I usually recommend having an R-38 level in the attic.

Thankfully, adding additional insulation blown in does not cost too much. I know Timberwood charges less than $75 per bag. Unlike other options folks consider, additional insulation is typically a good idea with a payback within a few years.
