Yes, I have heard it called "The Swamp". I personally have no idea if the name is true or not, but if multiple folks have heard the area referred to as "The Swamp", then I would say the OP's statement is true. This does not mean it is a swamp, but does mean that folks have made enough comments that others have heard it.
I don't think it's jealousy, or any aversion to the southern end of The Villages, it's just something folks have heard, and then repeat. Judging by some of the comments I've read here from folks that live there, it sounds like the moniker may be appropriate.
