From what I have observed the last couple of years, "the rising tide is raising all the boats". What the Villages Developer is doing is helping to raise the prices of all the homes on the Historical Side. There are many nice manufacture homes that have been renovated and have many years of "Life" left in them. A number of residents I've talked with wouldn't live anywhere else in The Villages. The US 441 corridor with all its shopping and restaurants is easily accessible from this location. For many reasons, it's a quicker process to build new homes in Fenney and Osceola Hills than on an already developed site but the progress seems steady and sure to improved the Historical side of The Villages.
