The Villages will never flood..the drainage systems are built to prevent that.
We have been through many hurricane warnings , watches and actual hurricanes here in almost 11 years. We have NEVER lost power, been flooded or had any damage. No…very few people leave..but many come from other areas to the relative safety of TV.

There may not be a direct hit but there can be flooding, loss of electricity and wind damage closing the rec centers, golf courses, restaurants and businesses.
