Default This is NOT a restricted community.....

Anyone 19 years or older may purchase a home here and live here as long as they have no children under the age of 19 living with them. The restriction is that children under 19 meaning 18 and younger may only stay for a total of 30 days per year. That has never been enforced to the best of my knowledge. The Federal Government has set a percentage of, I believe, 10% residence at age 19 years. Years ago TV was advertised as a retirement community. It is not and they stopped advertising as such. It is advertised as a "Active Living Community for Adults" not a place just for people over 55 years of age. They also years ago advertised "Free golf for life" and that is not completely true either and they have since stopped advertising it as such as well. So, if your salesperson selling you your home told you that it was childrenless they were wrong.
