Is it what you thought or hoped for? Were your mental "reservations" confirmed or proven otherwise?

"Our" perspective would be from a mid 50's couple... healthy, active, very social, love to travel the world. MY personal retirement FEAR is boredom, and not living a full, active life in retirement. We'd both like to keep busy and give back /volunteer where and when able. (No grands yet as our kids are only in their early 20's.)

We appreciate any insight anyone would care to share. Thanks...
Rent for 6months/year. if you find all OK, then buy.
Nothing lost if you don't like the place.
Been 'birding here for 20+ years, after trying other over 55+ communities.
IMHO TV is by far the best, and the few negatives are far outweighed by the positives.
