Best to come down and see for yourself and maybe even sit in your car at different times of day to see what noise you hear. In my opinion the worst noises in the Villages are all the gasoline powered lawnmowers, trimmers, weed wackers, power washers , etc. Hopefully in the future we will have all battery operated machines. Landscaper noise pervades the neighborhoods everyday as different crews come and go with their loud Dodge Ram trucks.
That is a big change south of 44, younger residents, are mowing their own lawns. 80% are using electric mowers, and only mow when needed. I may see 3 lawn companies a week drive into Richmond, only notice gas mowing TV property. Soon as everybody has added landscaping and pools, it will be even less.
