Oh, go ahead and make it an Airbnb and find some vacant space for RV hook-ups while you're at it. How about Section 8 housing? Good money it that too.

I would welcome a "walk to everything" living option in The Villages. But, to me, an essential part of that would be a grocery store and drug store within a few steps. Crystal City in Washington, DC has condos where you can get on an elevator, and have access to grocery stores, drug stores, doctor's offices, restaurants, a movie theater, and many other things. I would consider a condo, townhouse, or apartment that had that kind of convenience. But, if I have to drive a half mile to Publix, I may as well drive 4 miles.
