These include trips to medical and personal appointments (like my hairstylist and quick shopping). Is there a shuttle service within The Villages? I'm finding I don't qualify for some services, since I don't have mobility issues, don't have a medical need or don't meet the age requirement for a "senior".
Check with your county transit authority. They have shuttle buses for a very low cost. I understand that for some strange reason they are prohibited from advertising in the villages.
