Obviously, not all of Sumter County is in The Villages either. So.......clear as mud!
Today, I called the Villages District Office of customer service who stated that they were discussing that same question. They, in their conversations believed it to be 125,000. Asking for verification of that number, I was given the Villages sales number to call. A person in sales recalled hearing a number around 115,000. So, there you have it for the current population numbers for The Villages.
