Any YES, moving from the northeast has been traumatic. 5 years next week and I still can't fully adjust to some of the stuff around here both regarding the location and the population. A lot of the good overrides some of the bad but some of the bad is just bad. There were things where I lived previously for 60+ years I didn't like either. One learns to overlook the bad most of the time. |
I'm from the north east (NY born and raised and left as a young adult for south Florida), NJ for 16 years in between living in Florida). There is nothing I miss from the NE other than family. Well......one more thing I miss is the tremendously wonderful feeling of the first warm spring day as we defrosted from the frigid winter. Sometimes we actually had a 50 degree day or two in February and that was glorious too.
Back to The Villages........I can not think of one thing I do not like about living here. This is paradise for me and hubby. He complains a lot about the hot summers but the hot temperatures and high humidity don't bother me at all, especially when I spend most of my time in air conditioned spaces.
