So many people have no clue about what happens here.


This "gated community" is a joke. Any Tom, Dick, or Jane can walk right in anytime they want.

What would it take (and cost) to make it a real gated community, and would it help ?

6 years in, not the wonderful place it is claimed to be.
Did you know The Villages is the safest place in Florida?

I lived in a truly gated and guarded neighborhood in Tampa for many years. It was in a large subdivision which had a few gated neighborhoods but ours was the only guarded one.

It cost each family close to $4,000/yr. We had to pay to repave the roads since they were truly private.

The Villages is the SAFEST place I have ever lived.

It is good to not live too close to a major city.
