1. The place is beautiful
2. The weather is great
3. The houses are built for the 55+ crowd on one level and are easy to get around in.
4. Small yards so they are easy to take care of.
5. NO BASEMENTS TO FLOOD. People in Wisconsin all want a basement, and they all pay $15,000 to waterproof them after 20 years. Never understood why people would ever want a pit under their house to get water issues with.
6. Town Squares. WOW, what a great concept.
7. Music every night
8 Dynamic place - Florida retirement haven The Villages rivals San Jose as ‘most dynamic’ metro
9. The pools and rec centers
10. An awesome state with no income taxes
11. Relatively low property taxes
12. An hour from Orlando and 1 1/2 hours to the beach
13. Golf Carts and cart paths
14. Wonderful friendly people.

So you can argue some of this is not created by the Developer, but they had a hand in most if not all of it, except maybe the weather, but they did chose the place to do this, so they get credit.

I really don't understand some people who gripe about it constantly, why not just move somewhere else?

Have a blessed day

Uh, yup, pretty much sums it up. There are those that just love to hate - and the percentage seems to go up as we age.
