I live in Greenbriar Villas, in the Village of Briar Meadow - right next to Lopez, a great location. I moved here in November, 2007 from Louisville, KY and love it here. It is wonderful being away from the cold and dreary Louisville winters.

Summer here was great; I did not mind the heat at all (and, yes, there was plenty of that); after all, even in Louisville most of the summer was very hot and humid. Just bring on the sunshine and that makes my day! There is still so much to do, and there is always the pool, movies, shopping, clubs, etc. And the opportunity to be situated to where we can visit beaches all over the state for short trips is outstanding.

There is such a different traffic pattern in the summertime, so it is much easier to get around, park, get golf tee times, etc, and there are amazing specials offered everywhere because of the slower time for merchants. If you haven't stayed in The Ville for a summer, you should try it. Freeda Clark
