We bought a lot in 1999 and moved here in May of 2000, full time, 17 years ago. I was 48 & hubby was 49. People up north couldn't believe we were moving to a retirement community. Now they all want to live here. LOL
We love it here as much now as when we first moved here.
We have never felt unsafe. Of course, that doesn't mean we don't think things can happen and keep aware of our surroundings.
We enjoy the younger people here. Many of them are our good friends. Many things have brought them here.
God bless the young ones who give up their life to come and help their parents and grandparents. Maybe the parents are helping their children through rough times, job loss, divorce, etc.
We need to have compassion for everyone. We have no idea what is going on in their lives and frankly, it's not my business.
Crime & problems have no age barrier. People want to blame the young ones that live here. I would think the majority that we read about live in surrounding communities, not the Villages.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Looks like some more rain.
