But there were no comparison on activities with TV. Not even close.
So it comes down to lifestyle. For me. It was the activities. I think my cousin feels the same way.
When we visited all these retirement areas, I never revealed that I was from TV. It was interesting to hear the locals talk about TV. A lot of crazy stories!

TV built homes are not the best in the world. We looked at TV, On Top of the World and Stone Creek. Stone Creek had the best built homes, IMHO, followed by OTOW, and then TV. Stone Creek only had one golf course and one rec. ctr., and ONE restaurant. If memory serves me right, OTOW, the water is owned by the developer, and you only have a 100 year lease to the land, so leaving it to family was in question, for me..
Yes, TV is all lifestyle, and no other communities compare for recreation and town centers.
