My wife and I had decided many years ago that Florida would some day be our home. Looked up and down both coasts over the years but never found exactly what we thought could be our forever home. Wife saw an add for The Villages on Fox News and mentioned it when we flew down for a company seminar in Orlando. We drove up after the seminar ended one day and fell in love with the place. We did two lifestyle visits over the next 12 months and bought our house as a vacation property that same year. 3 years later I received an offer to work remotely full-time. I accepted it and two months later we moved here full time. I still work full-time remotely and we are still in the original house we bought back in 2009. Love it here.
