Many of the homes have been replaced with stick frame and block homes, but still predominantly manufactured homes. One of our favorite areas in the entire Villages. We rented there long term before buying our home in CDD1.
Agree, it's so expensive to move, and it gets harder the older we get, but... Orange Blossom Hills and other original areas are so appealing, they haven't built a country club since that even comes close to the one there, and WOW, have the kept up the rec center, the pools parks and all the facilities there. It's tempting. And the number of new homes being built there are fantastic, the lots so nice (some are on TWO or the original lots, and the convenience to shopping, while good all over the villages, but nothing like what is in that area !
