Different fees and taxes based on where you live and who provides service. It seems like the source of confusion is Leesburg Electric providing service inside Sumter County. If that is where you send your electric payments then I guess they do.
I believe you pay the following:
Because you live in Sumter County
- Sumter County property tax
- Sumter County school tax
- Sumter County fire protection fee
Because you live in an area incorporated by Wildwood City
- Wildwood City tax
Because you live in this part of Florida
- Southwest Florida Water Management Division (SWFWMD) fee
Because you live in a CDD
- Annual bond payment
- Annual CDD maintenance payment
Because of who provides your water service
- CSU water and irrigation and any associated tax
Because of who provides electric service
- Leesburg electric bill and any associated tax
Because you live in the Villages
- Villages amenity fee
- Villages trash pickup
Difference between your bill and mine:
- I live in an unincorporated section of Sumter County so I don't pay Wildwood taxes
- My electric company is SECO so they get my bill payments

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
