Letting everyone in by pressing a button is just not "Safe!"
All legitimate businesses should file for a sticker to be scanned, and all guests should have to talk to someone as they press the button to see a resident in that community by speaking with a Village employee, like most communities do outside of The Villages.

If you feel unsafe in your home, maybe you should consider a community that is truly gated.
