Default I use Lady Lake because that is the official post station

for our zip code. It is immediately recognized whereas at time "The Villages" is not.
It was surprising to us when we first moved here that folks from other parts of FL never hear of TV.....they all recognize Lady Lake, Leesburg, etc.
...until it is explained to those not from here why it is called The Villages, they have no concept of what the name implies.

And Lady Lake has a nicer sound to it than "The Villages".
