Thanks in advance,

On the northside it's CR 42, on the south end it's CR 44, on west side and east side there is not one defining line because between those two roads I listed 42 and 44 is about 15 miles. So in that 15 miles the east and west boundaries will zig zag. US 441/27 is a boundary line in the Spanish Springs area, but even that is not hard and fast because the historic side is east of that, by saying historic we're referring to the original development that started everything and was mainly mobile homes up until the last couple of years. The Villages (TV) has been buying back those lots and building new cottage homes in that area.

If you go to Google Map and type in zip code 32162 and then zoom out so that CR 42 and CR 44 are at the top and bottom, you'll notice rooftops and homes aligned in rows with matching rooftops. Looking east and west you'll get a general idea of the boundaries, remember TV is about 35 square miles, maybe even larger as we speak. You won't get a boundary line around the east side because that zip code is 32159 and the newest areas in the south is 32163, and the 32162 is the biggest chunk in the middle, 3 zip codes.

Here, I gave you a headstart with the link below. On my 21" monitor it's hard to get those two roads on the map at the same time without losing the ground images. Scroll in and out and you'll see what I mean. The newest areas between 466A and CR 44 (south end) don't show as much detail, but it's mostly filled in with homes, they just haven't taken a photo in a couple of years.
