I live in The Villages and I am interested in home break-ins, golf cart thieves, etc. in my area. We all know that info on these types of crimes would not be reported by The Villages Daily Sun because it does not help the sale of homes in The Villages. My first look at the map revealed crimes in the commercial areas of The Villages but I could not find any crimes in the residential areas of The Villages. The earliest crime that I found was on 2/11/2023. It is hard to believe that there were no crimes reported within the residential areas of The Villages.
