My wife is much less patient than I am. To me it sounds exciting. She loves her princess activities, including massages, yoga, barre, Zumba, etc. She loves shopping and the idea of living in the bubble. She loves classes where she is continuing to grow mentally, physically and spiritually.

The big unknown is how much time and how much disruption do we need to endure? Will my wife find activities that will keep her stimulated. Why renting first may make sense.
It sounds like you have found a great place, for you. Princess activities & classes will take a while to get there. There is much more north of 44. I suggest your wife look for spas, & exercise groups, & classes: the catalog of The Villages Enrichment Academy The Enrichment Academy is very helpful. Then find massages, hair salons, mani/pedi, Zumba, yoga, & classes she would be interested in, note their location & then figure out if driving there or carting there would be doable. Even if these activities are not near your currently projected new house, they might be a factor in deciding where to look for rentals & will definitely increase Villages life enjoyment. Good luck, lots of work ahead.
