Have you taken a Lifestyle Visit? If you haven't, have you considered doing so? You arrange it through TV and can stay from 4 to 14 days and it's $99 to $149 a day depending on the season and living most likely in a courtyard villa (CYV). I took one in 2011 for 7 days and I got to know my way around TV fairly quickly. The villa neighborhood will have others on a LSV so you won't get the feel of a real neighborhood, but you can see if you like a courtyard villa. Here's a link to the site to make arrangements.

The Villages Lifestyle Preview Plan

While you're on a visit, you can contact a Villages agent or go to open houses on your own and see the differences. Patio Villas, Courtyard Villas, Cottages and Designer Homes. This what you'll probably be staying in, a fairly new CYV near Brownwood Square.
