Many of the older homes seem so dated, there appear to be fewer pools and such but the prices paid do not seem to reflect these deficiencies. This leads me to wonder if I am missing something that makes the older areas more attractive. I drove around a LOT while I was on my lifestyle visit and could not answer this question for myself, so I am asking the source of all Villages knowledge.

What is the attraction of the historic section?
