My Lord, this is not a crisis, we bought down here because of the atmosphere, we were never promised big box stores, only a plaza and lots of amenities. The lack of big box stores is not a problem with us as we rarely go to them and when we do we enjoy a little ride to Ocala or up on 441. It is less than 10 minutes to Publix, not a big deal at all to drive 10 minutes once a week to a grocery store. Living down here compared to the northern villages also saves a lot of time if we go south to Orlando or Tampa as we're only minutes from the Turnpike and/or I-75. It's just fine the way it is, it will be a little better with the plaza but not sure that I'm looking forward to the connectivity.
