Yes, we're close to the neighbors, but as in all things, that dog barking, neighbors talking, etc., becomes "white noise" after a time and doesn't bother us. Most of the snowbird renters rent the same property every year, so when they do come back, they already know the neighbors and have friends. The only recommendation I would have with the patio villa is to make sure you get one with a screened patio/lanai to begin with as there are easement issues that prevent you from screening after the purchase. This wasn't disclosed to us when we bought our home and upon getting estimates to screen the patio now, we've found we can't because of the easement. Not a big deal necessarily and will save us a boatload of money in the long run, but it would have been nice to get it screened. We see many PVs with screened patios that were built that way to begin with, so I'm not sure how they skirted the easement issue. Maybe if TVs is doing it, it's okay. Whatever, we LOVE our home and our neighborhood, the low maintenance and the new friends we've made!! Good luck in your search!!
