January weather is often not ideal. It is the mid winter and not like the north or northeast, it is still often not the balmy weather you may be desiring. Finding a January rental may be next to impossible, as the vast majority of renters will rent for no less than 2-3 months in the Jan-Mar timeframe, so good luck. You might get lucky but it will be a tough get. As far as employment there are plenty of minimum wage part or full time jobs available with The Villages; gate guard, golf course attendant, Rec center attendant, community watch. If you desire a real job at a decent wage, you may have to go to Ocala or Orlando area. If you are a sales person, then real estate is always a possibility. Again - good luck
