Both areas offer each activity, but the emphasis is clearly different. There is clearly a demand for the varied activities and lifestyles of each area, just be sure to select the area that best fits your needs.
The emphasis in the southern area is walking and biking. That is the one reason I prefer the northern area. Golf carts are not allowed on the paths in the southern area because those paths are dedicated to the walkers and bikers. I much prefer to "hop on the path" when I'm driving around in my golf cart. The system of paths and tunnels in the northern end is different than down south.
