The problem the county has with repairing potholes (I didn't think they existed in The Villages..no snow, salt, freezing rain and wild fluctuation of temperatures) is they sent their repair crews to the "Ray Charles School of Asphalt Technique Repair" 1. Fill shovel with asphalt patch, 2. Toss in hole (do not have any regard for how it looks and 3. Leave quickly and go to McDonalds at The Colony. Don't worry the cars will flatten it out in 2 or 3 years....if it stays in place that long! Two quick places to look is Buena Vista before the circle at Pinellas Place (southbound) and 466A (Eastbound) at Morse Blvd. This situation exists due to a lack of accountability.
