Mallory.... that was just an estimate... may be way high, may be way low; there are almost 40,000 households in TV, so, just used half that for estimating purposes. Once all the Comcast people have to start paying for tee time system, the number of paid subscribers may drop.

Bogie... agreed, but, it was a face and a starting point. Given the intricate and somewhat secretive nature of villages-operated businesses, it may be a real challenge to actually find someone with answers who is willing to share.

As an aside, I started a list of all the businesses directly or indirectly owned or supported by the Villages developer....it fills up 2 columns on a piece of steno paper. A few examples.... libation stations at the Squares, golf cart store, katie belles, Daily Sun/VNN/WVLG, movie theatres, fitness centers, polo field, charter schools, bowling alley, championship golf, etc. Again, these are just a few. I am pro-Developer...I think they created a great concept here, do everything first class, and the risk they took earned them their rewards. But, it is a far and wide operation.... well beyond just selling new houses. Even after buildout, whatever and whenever that is, the Developer will continue to have a huge presence in this community.
