I cannot say my view of The Villages is a positive one because of that impact. I suggest you read a book called "Leisureville," by Andrew Blechman. It was written over 10 years ago, but it does lay out the nature of what The Villages is all about. Best wishes for your retirement years.

Leisureville, yes blechman had a dream and then wrote a book.
To get a feel of what Villagers think of that book…..do a search on here.
