Reason why you don't see The Villages listed in "Money" magazine or "Where To Retire" magazine is that our developer won't advertise in those publications. "Where To Retire" is just a big advertisement for all the communities that place ads in their periodical. I'm sure "Money" and "Where" have asked The Villages (very well known to perspective retirees) many times to place ads and they just say no.

Same goes for The Daily Sun. You see "news" stories about different businesses (on Villages property). But those "stories" are only about stores that advertise in The Daily Sun on a regular basis. Don't advertise = never a mention in the local paper.
