Congratulations on your upcoming retirement. If you are snowbirds you will always see TV at the peak of population. I think comments about the crowds and heavy traffic are all relative to where you are coming from and what you are used to. Being from Chicago suburbs the peak traffic volume in TV is nothing. Grocery stores and restaurants are busy but not as busy as what we were used to..
If you are a golfer tee times can be a more difficult but we still get in as much golf as we want. I can't speak about crowding at pools, but you could always look for a home that has a pool or room you could add one.
During normal times the squares can, for sure, be busy. During normal times we only go a couple times a month during peak season. We take our old car to cruise nights and sometimes if there is a particular band we enjoy. My experience is most people that have been Villagers for awhile don't frequent the squares all that often.
If you are active people I can't think of a better 55+ community than TV. Yes, we love it here, but do your own due diligence and check out other interesting communities. We rented here three winters before we bought our home.
Good luck to you.
