We looked at Solivita also befor deciding on TV, we lived near by in Haines CIty for 7 years. As others have said, a very nice community inside the gates, outside not so much. Also to be considered is getting in and out, there are only 2 principal ways out, north to I4 and west to Haines CIty, both roads are VERY busy in the morning and evening. Poinciana is about 35000 homes with mainly working age people and children and very poorly laid out. This creates lots of traffic on the roads during rush hour, making getting in and out of Solivita which is on the south side of poinciana next to impossible. Just look at a map.
People who complain about traffic in TV need to take a trip to Solivita to see just how bad it can really get,
