I cannot agree with you that living in TV or even the general area, is tantamount to "big city living."
Big city living offers many educational and cultural opportunities. Need I say more?

Many TV residents moved here because of what the "crowds" offer, i.e., the squares. golf, pools, clubs, etc.
The traffic is only heavy during season and within TV itself.

Other than the above, which certainly could never be classified as "big city living," living here is more like living among the country bumpkins of central Florida.
