At the end of the day, the homeowners pay no matter how you split the pie.

More recent homeowners and those without homestead exemption a pay a far higher percentage of taxes than those who have been here 5+ years. The impact of new development is built into the tax structure.

Development is why employment is high and taxes in Sumter County has not increased in 10 years.

Development is why Home prices outside the Villages has increased 32.8% so far this year.
