Funny thing on this idea is one can't keep it in a bottle.

In two years one will have the same type of question on a new, location but the same cyclical answer would exist. Renting for 6 months maybe but two years seems kinda long.

Two years from now T V will be almost at Center Hill I believe I read. I agree south of St Catherine and Middleton areas is not the Villages of yeaster years.

They sell Eastport as the new center... which is changing when they add south of the old 470 they have another center being "dreamed" as the future vision.

Gold Wing Nut says every 5 miles they put a square but those squares get smaller and smaller. There is no shopping larger retails planned anytime soon so Clermont, Leesburg or heck Westly Chapel and Tampa for those needs as they spread south of Middleton over the next 15 years or so.

Close to Brownwood is where I would stay. I moved north of 44 for retail shopping and The Villages charm via Golf Cart.
