So much misinformation. For homes between 466 and 466A the irrigation water for homes comes from an aquifer that is not suitable for drinking. It is NOT reclaimed water. The golf courses do use reclaimed water that has been treated in the treatment plant and is very near potable quality. This is mixed with rain water and held in the retention ponds. This is based on materials provided by The Villages. I can not speak to the areas north of 466 nor south of 466A but I recommend you contact the District offices and ask them rather than relying on what I or others have said here.
