I guess this could be debated all day.

I think the bottom line, as Coach Belichick says, "it is what it is".

TV doesn't hide the fact that they put an emphasis on golf. Yes there are many who don't use the 'free' execs but they were told before they moved in about the amenities fee and what it covers. My sales agent, Carol, was very upfront about this and she showed us where the 'gyms' were and how many (few) there are.

It seems like there are full service fitness centers near TV as mentioned in this thread. I find it funny how most people want EVERYTHING on the campus.

The other point of emphasis by my agent was the swimming pools. Granted they are not indoor but it is surprising how almost no one mentions them in terms of exercise on this thread. Obviously TV has put money into these as well and I think there are almost 40 of them?

My point is that TV isn't making false promises in my opinion. I know pretty well what I'm getting and what I'm not when I decide to move.
