We also have several decorative flag poles in our yard that we switch out flags several times a year, is this allowed? We have a Directv satelite dish mounted on our shed, would this be an ok location for one? I've talked to people and tried to look info up but can't find any current info. If a person is under 55 but has a documented disability, can they own a home in one of the subdivisions. Are certain subdivisions less strict then some of the others? If so which are? Also can we have fences, not the invisible type? Who could I talk to? A lot of the homes we're researching are located in the Water Oaks community. Thank you to all that give me information.

With ALL of your questions...I would recommend coming for what they call a "life-styles" visit. Go to The Villages website and check that out. You can see on a visit what it's like here and somewhat experience what living here might be like. There are restrictions. The oldest part may not be which is at the far north of the community. Truth be told though to actually speak with someone in the sales office might be the best way. OH...and they will not do any type of selling as the philosophy is "IF" someone wants to buy here, the life-style and community sells itself. We came on a Life-Style visit without the intention of buying or moving here We spoke with an agent at length with some of your same questions and others. It was later, once we got home we got to thinking we'd love it here. We contacted that agent to let her know our list of needs/wants were and the rest is history. She never called us---even to "just check" with us on anything. As far as handicapped---they don't necessarily build the homes for that...but most are accessible. Our son in law is in a wheelchair and it nearly is fine for him though he'd need some adaptations if he ever lived here.
