We’ve been noticing they a lot of people moved to TV a lot younger than us. We are in decent health. Age 67 & 65 and May not be able to move for another couple of years. Is there a point where it’s too old to fit in and enjoy? Be kind to the new guy.😉 thanks
We are from MA and moved here when we were 70 and 67 in 2016 after not knowing anything about The Villages. We visited our MA next door neighbors who moved here. We stayed with them for three days and knew what an amazing place it is. We contracted a home here a month later and bought two months later. Some say this place will add 10 years onto your life, and I believe it! I think it’s because of the active lifestyle and the so many great new friends you meet. So much to see and do here and you can do it longer throughout the year compared to living up north. There are so many activities here, at different levels, to keep you active and happy. A client of mine told me “you don’t know how fortunate you are to live here”, and I truly believe him! Why wait a few years to move? Whatever the reason, compare it with your health and happiness!!! Our biggest regret is not moving here sooner!
