I'm also interested in learning about the least desirable areas in The Villages.

I "personally" was not impressed with the dog park near Spanish Springs. It appeared neglected and most of the grass in the dog-park playing area is gone and only dirt remains which makes it a terrible area especially when the dirt turns to mud after a heavy rain. Not sure why The Villages cant spent a few bucks and re-sod and clean the area.

Any suggestions appreciated.
I wonder if that is under control of the AAC or the CCD. When the group sued a certain area North is now controlled differently than the rest of us. I bet if you google you can see who is in charge.

I do know that what some find desirable others do not. The price and the size of lots and the mature landscaping is a desirable draw to the areas near Orange Blossom and Country Club Hills. Other people want brand spankin' new. Our homes lanai in back is West facing and we love the sunsets but others don't like the heat. I believe who lives near you and who you become friends will color your opinion of what you like about The Villages. Also it is hard to begin life anew in a new place and we really do have a lot of groups of different "cultures" here that were raised a bit differently than other groups. People from the Midwest and people from the Burroughs of New York City have a lot to share with each other.

I really find all areas have lovely charm.
