Mr. Peachie and I received a resounding endorsement of The Villages while playing a round of golf with two golfers we met at tee time in April of this year. While waiting to tee at one of the holes, I asked one of the gentlemen how long he had lived in The Villages. He sheepishly admitted they had bought here several years ago but had moved away and then moved back. It appears that he and his wife were unhappy with the developer and left to live in another Florida golf community and then moved to another but nothing came close to what they had left. They returned to The Villages and they were not leaving again. That disclosure certainly made Mr. Peachie and me think we should keep drinking the water...

And think about those golf courses, I believe they are the biggest attraction to the area. Who the heck is going to buy homes or condos built on top of the golf course if there is no
golf or activity to interest them. Density can be found anywhere, amenities are what will draw future homeowners. Now if they find oil under the golf courses, they may have to drill but that's another thread
