An increased population brings us the businesses we long for and will perhaps attract other perks such as more doctors to choose from, more everything to choose from.

I agree with you Gracie!! That said....check the cities and towns folks where you once lived. Did not change happen in those places?? Why does everyone not want change or why do they complain once they get settled in a place? In our former small midwestern town (that doubled/tripled in size during the 30 yrs we lived there) the newbies came in and that's all they did, is complain. They didn't like (you can fill in the blank) and they most certainly complained when new developments began to crop up. We had a name for them...NIMBIYS!!! (not in my back yard). I LOVE The Villages and all that is has to offer and will be offering. We can't speculate on 10 yrs from now---or 15 or 20. Most of us won't be around in those time frames anyway.........
