I believe this is called The Villages and not Stepford.
My point is everyone is different. I expect MOST people that. come here come for the social opportunities, not us.
My wife and I are hermits. We don't do social well if at all. So, we don't have many/any real friends here.
We moved here for several reasons, amenities, the rapid response of EMTs, security, etc. Previously we lived about 15 miles outside of a small town on 11 acres. Our closest neighbor was 1/2 mile away. We had a pond and heavily wooded acreage for our dogs.
We gave up a lot to move here. But, we gained a lot that we feel is important at this point in our lives.
We are just on polite speaking terms with our immediate neighbors, and that is fine for us.
