I agree. Overbuilding was one of my concerns as I contemplated buying here and lower taxes were the offset

The Villages Lake-Sumter, Inc. (Developer) has always had the governor's ear. It is why, "in actuality" a private school can be certified as a charter school..thank Jeb Bush.

TVLSI has Governor Scott's ear and you can bet that a bridge, a tunnel, etc to connect all of The Villages properties will be erected and any accommodation TVLSI requires. Its good business ...but lousy for residents.

One poster spoke of people per acre. heck that is not my concern. My concern is when all those people decide to move from acre to acre for shopping dining golfing.............

TVLSI are the pied pipers of shang-ri-li living that was their hook

I know if you don't like it here ,,,move if only the solution was that easy
