All areas of the Villages have some great things to offer and some not so great things.
Spanish Springs areas have the most convenient shopping but much older homes. So more maintenance but probably no bonds.
Areas north of 466 and west of the Spanish Springs area will have a bit newer homes. Things are quieter, but convenience to Rec Centers and associated amenities are less.
The Sumter Lake area used to be kind of central to everything but that is moving south as new areas are developed. Homes will be in the 10 - 15 year old range with many having no remaining bonds - Lots of amenities and a bit less convenience to shopping.
Area between 466A and 44 have newer homes - 3-7 years old, mostly with bonds amounts remaining. Lots of convenience to Rec Center amenities and somewhat less to shopping.
South of 44 - newest homes and highest bonds. No premiere homes if you want a high end home. Amenities are growing but still sparse. Its a long ways to the town centers and to shopping & restaurants, even by auto.
I recommend that you get copy of the Recreation News to see what activities are of interest to you. Then you can match your interests with the Rec Centers and see their locations. For example, if water volleyball is your interest, the Rec Centers between 466 and 44 offer that more frequently.
Good luck!
