I talked to a manager at Costco when I joined in the Altamonte store (to take advantage of their car buying program), and told him that a large group of people want a Costco in or near the Villages. While he said it could happen one day, it won't be in the near future, as corporate doesn't think there's enough businesses to support one now. I told him there are plenty businesses in TV, Ocala, Inverness, and Leesburg, and while he personally agreed, he doesn't see it happening for quite a while. I seem to remember a campaign on TOTV a while back to email Costco to request a store, and I think nothing ever came of that
