There are the Village Rec Centers, but those are family pools. In the past, when a new village was started, the first thing built was the postal station and neighborhood pool. Has this become a thing of the past?
It is unfortunate that each house does not have a rec center, adult pool, family pool, starter shack, and a town square within a 1/2 mile walking distance. I guess some would consider that poor planning.
