In some villages, they are in private homes. In others, they are on short (3 or 4 feet) poles, with a box on the top.
As mentioned, some villages don’t have the program, it’s resident run.

The Villages residents are four times more likely than other Americans to survive a cardiac event.

the AED program is part of it, the proximity of fire department is another.
