Then it looks like your answer is #2. From my perspective if your not here for The Villages or work #2 is the only other answer. The list of what this area doesn't have is long. Such as:
no beaches
marginal warm weather in winter
hotter than ocean weather in summer
not convenient to airport
no major expressway close by
no major cultural centers
So again help me. If not to piggyback on The Villages what would possess one to pick up a map and say here is my retirement home.

A good home well built, well priced. on the golf course, and right next to Walmart. Weather is good, no snow. Its not in the Orlando War Zone. Since I don't use the villages then they don't even fit the equation. Close enough to the Ocean and equal distance from the Atlantic and Gulf. Close enough to Disney. One mile from Lake Weir with some very good fishing. Close to Leesburg host of the Bass Master Clasicc. Great Chain of lakes. Close to one of the best FBOs around for plane rental. What part of that piggy backs on anything that pertains to the villages? At one time some very good entertainment up at Silver Springs. I came I saw the village life style, I passed.
