Apartments in The Villages
It certainly seems that there are going to be many apartments in The Villages in various locations. I'm sure the Family will make them lovely and tasteful. That isn't my concern. The health implications are worrisome. Compared to other locations that cater to people over 55, Villagers have had a comparatively low incidence of Covid. Unlike most other communities that offer housing for seniors, we have been fortunate to not have multi-family units. We don't have to be exposed to others in hallways, elevators or public transportation. Those certainly are among the close quarters that we are warned to avoid. At this point, we all have to provide our own transportation so that isn't an issue. Whether or not we choose to live in one of the new apartments, we will be exposed to others who frequent the communal spaces in the buildings. Six months ago, this would never have been a concern. We live in a different world now.
