We have not yet bought our home in The Villages but I do know that there are certain areas which are close to some train tracks. When I say close I mean like right in your backyard close. One of the TOTV admins has trains rolling through his backyard which they were not aware of until after they purchased their home so I agree with everyone's input that it's critical to do as much research as possible.

Have you done a "Lifestyle Preview" yet? When you do make sure to arrange to stay the maximum amount of time and be sure to rent a Golf Cart that way you can spend as much time as you like exploring; even if you have a car to drive. And definitely plan the visit when TOTV has their monthly Luncheon as you will meet a bunch of really great people.
