We have more time, to cook, it is rare that we eat out more than twice a month. Then, we usually eat Due to friends asking us to join, or I’m just not gonna make that dish at home. Grocery is not an issue, most is delivered to our front door.

I am wondering because, one thing that posters bring up about the new area is there’s only one restaurant. Those who live there don’t seem to have a problem with it, or driving to a restaurant that they want to eat at.

So those who are not in favor of the newest areas due to lack of restaurants, and connectivity, do you eat multiple times a week, that the new area would impact on you having to drive elsewhere. Or is it the lack of security of not having 10 restaurants by golf cart or car within 5 minutes of your home.

We are looking at a possible forth move, and really like the trails, with a more tranquil vibe. I have as of yet met a person who lives in newly built villages to be unhappy, but just as excited to be enjoying life in TV just as much as any new resident, when they bought in the early concept of pre SS, LSL or Brownwood.
We eat at restaurants once a week on average. I like to cook and feel I have more control over choosing healthy and yummy things when I cook. Henry does eat lunch after golf four days a week.

I don't think people really diss the new areas for any other reason other than they are jealous of people moving to The Villages because they cannot at this time, or they are just misinformed. It is as beautiful in the far south area of The Villages as it is any place else in The Villages.. Some folks cannot utter positive words about ANYTHING.

Good morning. Hope you find just the perfect place for your new home. We are in our second home in The Villages and love it.
