• There is a misconception in The Villages that we have to allow under-age persons to live here. That is WRONG. We do NOT have to allow ANY under-age persons to live here. Federal regulations require at least 80% residents must be occupied by one person 55 years of age or older. The regulations mean we cannot have OVER 20% under-age living here and still be considered a 55+ community. We can have ZERO under-age persons here. Many retirement communities around here do not allow ANYONE under 55 to live in their retirement communities. Our developer set the policy to allow underage persons and felons to live among us.
