I'm not sure what those terms mean in the context of certain neighborhoods in The Villages. Do they mean that the neighborhoods are away from busy roads and freeways? Does it mean that there aren't any (or many) pickleball courts? That there aren't live, outdoor music venues in those neighborhood?
I hope I am not inadvertently 'stepping onto a controversy landmine' by asking these questions....
By the way, I am not asking whether you agree with the review that I referenced, above. I am only trying to understand the reviewer's terminology.
Thanks in advance for educating me about these terms. |
In my little neighborhood of courtyard villas in the Village of Tamarind Grove, I’ve heard one neighbor’s big dog say “woof” twice. Generally when I drive down the street, I see no one. I’ve never seen any children here. There don’t seem to be any rentals. I’ve never heard any music. The lawns get mowed, but only once a week, and it just takes a few minutes. The trash gets picked up twice a week. I can sometimes hear delivery trucks outside, but not always. If the wind is blowing the right direction, I can sometimes hear a distant train whistle. It’s about as quiet and relaxing and tranquil as a home could be.
