Hilarious put I'll give their first Opie credit for not realizing the world is different from one corner to another. Did you ever drive by two gas stations and they had totally different prices even though they were virtually across the street from each other.? But I guess you're really complaining that things cost more in the Villages because you were richer. That's not just one of the reasons but because of the rents for the land etc etc I can also tell you that if you got a Taco Bell in Leesburg Central it's $0.30 cheaper for a taco and if you go to the new one that was built all the way down towards the turnpike because it cost a million that was more to build the newer one .

The Walmart in Leesburg was I believe a Kmart 20 plus years ago and I'm sure they leased it at rates that Realtors would probably go crazy for today. I've never felt unsafe at this Walmart in Leesburg or any other since they are extremely busy with people coming and going all day long. Yes it's not as great or new looking but I'm very used to where everything is and luckily for me there's a lot less AAA personality Villagers shopping in Leesburg . You would not believe the crazy drivers trying to park and do 50 miles an hour in The Villages Walmart parking lots you literally take your life in your hands
