The WIFI thermostat is a great idea, the problem with that is that many homeowners who are not full time don’t pay for year round internet access when they are only at the Villages for less than half the year. For us, when we are lucky enough to be at our Villages home, it is also a very healthy digital de-toxification time. During normal times, there is already too many fun things to do at the Villages than there is time in the day. We get by at the Villages just fine with unlimited data on our phones. We can turn our phones into personal WIFI hotspots and then use our tablets for necessities like making T Times or dinner reservations and check our e-mails.
