Then my husband went with me to TV in July and we both fell in love with the landscaping, how clean it was, the birds and the manatees. He wasn’t convinced he would like it, because of the number of people, but everything else he loved. Now both of us are chomping at the bit to move.
This is a very small community compared with TV, and as a result, especially in the summertime, there’s nothing to do here if you don’t golf. There’s a county park close by so my husband could go and ride his bike or hike but that’s all we do. It’s amazing to me that you can take your golf cart to get your nails done, go to the doctor, go to so many restaurants, shopping, we even to a hardware store when we were out there!
Now if the snowbirds will just buy my home!

Glad you are excited about The Villages. And wish you well in your search of a home here.
You mention the manatees, yes they are fun to see……if you travel to the west coast…but not in TV.
