The amenity fee only goes so far before you'll realize it's way more expensive to golf, go to the gym, or eat, in TV than driving a bit and find higher quality golf and fitness outside.
Obviously it is a choice to make, and many can afford the fees, but I had a way different idea of what the amenity fee would include.
It's an observation, not a complaint.

To us the amenity fee is a bargain for all the things we have access to for free, and how well maintained everything is.
As far as golf, yes the CC fee is too much after Jan 1st. But before that during the off season they're half price. Which is a very reasonable fee for 18 holes.
Eating out can be a bit more here, although not "way more" imo.
I just retired from Sysco, I sold food to restaurants in Southern Indiana. For the most part, prices at the places we go to here are not that far off from the accounts I had.
But generally I agree with you, it takes more money to live here. But for us, it's well worth it and we couldn't be happier.
