Renting before buying is an excellent idea. If you like the newer areas rent there. Every area has pros and cons, and similar amenities. We bought our first house in Orange Blossom, then moved to Marsh Bend. We loved the mature trees, larger lots and loads of convenient shopping in the north, but the trails, the pools, less traffic and a new house in the south ( vs a 30 year old house) were great things too. You will find out what is important for you. Be sure and get a rental with a golf cart. Buzzing around on your cart is a delightful benefit of living in TV.
