Funny you should ask. After selling our TV home in 2015 and 5 years RV'ing full-time we decided to drop the anchor somewhere near the beach so we bought a place in Ormond Beach. Margaritaville is just around the corner from us a couple of miles away. Still going strong and building some additional homes as we converse. According to a recent newspaper article M'ville is approved for 3900 total homes and about 1639 had been sold as of Jan 21 2021. So nowhere near as large as TV and it is limited in size by surrounding properties. My carpet cleaner guy lives there and says they like it just fine. Great lifestyle over here. Near the beach and lots of other venues and any kind of restaurant you want. Local places outnumber chains by many times. Plus there are real people in the community, not just a bunch of overprivileged, pretend millionaires.
