If the OP spoke to people in customer-facing service jobs, would he get a different perspective on how pleasant and friendly the residents here are?

Of course most of us aren't in those jobs and won't see that side of people. I certainly haven't done a comparison study between TV and other 55+ communities to see if Villagers are better or worse, or if an increase in grumpiness is correlated to age.

My own neuroses mean I would rather die than make a scene in public, but I will admit to doing my share of eye-rolling and quiet sighing when impatient.
