I do not think it is neglect. Chillers were never promised. Heaters, yes in cooler months.
There is no health risks to older folks with a brain in their head. We are not lobsters being thrown into a pot of boiling water. If it is 95 F outside and the water temp is too hot in the pools, make wise choices. If you have expectations of cooler water temps, go to your favorite Gainesville pool or install one yourself and include that pool chiller that is so common.
I wonder how many home pools in The Villages have pool chillers. Perhaps we can get some feedback from some residents that have these common pool chillers as to cost to install, operate and effectiveness.
Another option would be a visit to lovely Marblehead, MA.
