The single best way to conduct an informed search is to do a lifestyle visit. Or, even multiple lifestyle visits. Have a sales agent take you around to get the overall big picture. Take the golf cart they provide and go everywhere, and talk with people. Try to figure out what is important to you, and what is not. Keep in mind that your life here will be different from wherever you are now. Whatever you may have heard about there being a "best" village, or a "worst" village is hogwash. That also goes for the 10% this or that nonsense. It's not like you have Beverly Hills over here, and some slum over there.

No one posting here can identify a future home for you, as that is a deeply personal decision. You just need to take that first step and come visit. Only then will you be able to truly understand what The Villages is all about. One caveat, though: if you come, and decide this is the place for you, be in a position to act now. Homes on the market typically do not last long, so you have to be prepared to pull the trigger if you find one that suits you. Good luck.
Very well said!
