I figured someone who takes these routes frequently might know.
Laughing. I like Google Maps a lot and use it almost daily because it is useful for plotting trips, but sometimes it isn’t updated for two or three years. Parts of The Villages south of 44 and especially south of the Turnpike link like what the old mapmakers sometimes labeled “Terra Incognita”—Land Unknown. “Here be monsters!” See photo. This is all houses now! Bradford, Hawkins, etc.
