That is the point, the developer is selectively enforcing the restrictions
Are you referring to a specific rule? I cannot find any such rule. Here is a recent article I found:

"The population of the Villages grows by approximately 4,500 annually. To maintain its 55+ status under federal law, at least 80 percent of homes must be occupied by at least one person who is 55 years of age or older. The average age in The Villages for a male is 62 and female is 60."

Also, I have read other news articles where The Villages is trying to attract younger residents, and they may allow more under-55 residents in certain areas of The Villages.
