JohnW you're incorrect about one specific statement, and this statement can mean a complete flip-flop of a lot of what you post.

This isn't a retirement community. It just flat out isn't. It's a 55+ community. Many people 55 and older still work. Many of them still work FULL time. Most of the people who do work, only work part-time. But look around at the stores you shop in. The insurance agencies you buy your insurance from. The libraries you borrow books from. The employees at the local businesses. MANY of these employees are seniors. And most of those seniors live in the Villages.

Life outside their homes aren't just entertainment. They are also their livelihoods, and the reason they can afford to live their chosen lifestyle.
