The villages are all different and it takes time to decide what is right for you. Before we moved here, we would study the map and think, "What would it be like to live there day in and day out?"

Many people love The Villages but not the house and location they chose, so they move to a different house. The realtors love it.
Great advice: "what would it be like to live in a certain village or area day in and day out".


I counted 81 resale homes in the Villages south of 44 listed on The Villages web site (this includes Fenney, DeSoto, Marsh Bend, McClure, etc.). Not casting anything negative regarding these Villages, just stating a fact.
