I am truly amazed and amused at the north vs south arguments on social media. It usually starts (like this post) with someone from the north bashing the south and then the retaliation from southerners.
But if people are really honest it isn’t the location or amenities. The issue is some people in the north do not want any growth. They feel the developer “promised” there would be no growth past whatever landmark (466, 466a, 44). They believe the Villages is “too big” and they wanted growth to stop as soon as they moved in.
Then people will bring up Mr Schwartz and Gary Morse and that they would never betray them. I have to laugh, they were very good businessmen. They would of jumped at the chance to buy up the land south of 44 from failed developments. I encourage you to look at the latest goldwingnut video update. He does a great job explaining the land purchases. The bottom line is the land was going to be developed by someone and the Villages doing it will make it much nicer than most any other developer.
Now go enjoy your day no matter where you live and stop complaining about where someone else chose to live.
