The intent of the law is to prohibit children (18 and under) from living in a community where 80% or more of the homes are occupied (not necessarily owned) by someone 55 or older.

Anyone 19 or older can live in or purchase a home here. (Although when we purchased The Villages limited sales to couples having at least one 55 yr old presumably to help maintain the 80%.)

If we ever fall below the 80% threshold anyone can live here. Even teenagers 😱.
