Obviously a typo. Thank you for pointing it out.

Here's is the actual law that has been posted in this thread already, but it seems that many have trouble understanding.

Federal Register 24 CFR Part 100; section 760.24-760.37 (4a), Florida Statutes
For a community to be considered "housing for older persons" as a 55+ community, the housing must be intended and operated for occupancy by persons 55 years of age or older and meet the following requirements:
1. At least 80% of the occupied units are occupied by at least one person 55 years of age or older.
2. The facility or community publishes and adheres to policies and procedures that demonstrate its intent to in fact be a provider of housing for older persons.
3. The facility or community complies with rules established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for verification of occupancy.

Anyone living in the Villages under age 19 should have been granted a special permission usually due to their special needs.

Here is more detail if anyone is interested.

I don't understand why this keeps coming up. It seems that so many people don't take the time to read a synopsis of a simple law.
