It depends on whether or not you'll be able to buy a house outright, or if you'll need to secure a mortgage.
With a mortgage, it'll be affordable, you'll be able to handle all the mandatory monthly bills, plus typical weekly expenses (groceries, gas in your car), yearly expenses (car maintenance, HVAC checkup, etc), and all your typical "interests" expenses (dining out, a couple of concerts every year, a yearly trip to somewhere else for a week), but not much left over for savings.
If you own property now and will be selling it to buy a new home in the Villages, it'll not be merely "affordable." $4800 will be enough to cover all your expenses, all or your interests, with plenty left over to save "just in case."
Your medical and your husbands' medical are covered since you're both disabled, so you'll have minimal expenses for that unless you get into long-term or catastrophic care needs.
