My olders sister's both own homes in the Villages.
When I decided to move to be closer to them, I chose a home nearby but not in Villages mainly because of the HOA, deed restrictions and covenants. I didn't like the cookie cutter look of the small properties and the prices were higher for what you get.

I'm 5 minutes away from them, have a lovely 3bed/2bath, 2 car garage, a large workshed and additional covered parking attached to shed, it has completely fenced large area for dogs around the pool, brick and block house with a new roof, on 1/2 acre in a very nice, quiet, older neighborhood. The house was move in ready except for painting interior to my liking and refinishing garage floor.
The property has lovely flowers and plantings, pineapple, orange, lemon, avocado, sugar apple mango and other trees. I see no neighbors behind me due to large growth trees and don't hear any noise from neighbors nor do they have any unsightly yards, etc., and we have no HOA, covenants, deed restrictions. Just regular zoning laws.
