LOL, we know there will be PLENTY of that. Kind of a pattern to those who never miss an opportunity to be sarcastic, even cruel and insulting, to an unsuspecting person asking a genuine question. People ? What ever happened to "mamma said if you don't have something nice, or kind, to say, don't say anything at all" ...LOL !

One more comment, Easter is the first noticeable change in crowds and traffic, but May always seems to be THE marker many of us live for. It always brings mixed emotions, we really miss our friends who only spend winters here in their Florida house, and we shudder to think what the expenses here would be if everyone ONLY paid amenity fees in the months they actually occupied their villages vacation home... so, it's a "mixed bag" as they say. But I LOVE those wonderful months when things are so calm, even fewer "intoxicated people behaving badly, and the amount of GLASS and various car parts strewn at every intersection and round about, is so obviously LOWER !

Done anyone know the average total population of 100% full time, versus the average total population (Air B&B, Property of the Villages, and private rentals included) in months like Jan, Feb, and March ? The observable changes are DRAMATIC !
