I'm done having to "commute" to a shopping area. I drove 25 minutes in NJ at 70 mph on the Garden State Parkway to get there. I'm not doing that anymore. Love my location which is close to shopping and I don't have to plan my shopping around a commute.

As other people have said, all in due time will the big retail stores come south of 44. I prefer not to have to wait for them. They were all in place nice and close before we moved to The Villages.
