It's a FEDERAL LAW...

Per HUD:

The Fair Housing Act: Housing for Older Persons | HUD.gov / U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
The law is that <at least> 80% of homes must have <at least> 1 person aged 55 or older living in it.

The law does not prevent The Villages from making that a 100% rule instead of 80%, or requiring that ALL persons in the homes instead of at least one must be at least 55 years or older. We had to deal with this law when I was on the board of a condo association back north.
