I’ve noticed people here at TOTV aren’t shy about bragging about Florida’s friendliest hometown, but I was hoping you could share your thoughts on a couple of other communities, using The Villages as the benchmark. Our priorities are friendly people and access to golf.

Spruce Creek is a Del Webb community just north of The Villages. Friends of my parents live there, and they prefer it because it is smaller and they feel they get more for their money. Any comments?

Also, what can you tell me about Sun City Center? Their own website isn’t even very informative.

Thanks!
We visited SSC several years ago and forfeited our third day to drive to TV for a day trip. TV is a feeling as well as a place. To say SSC didn't "do it" for us would be an understatement. That said, we had older relatives that lived there for a quarter of a century and loved every minute of it, but I don't think they ever visited TV, either.
