Craig - here is my take. That villagers all move 3 times ranks up there with "The villages is the VD capital of the world", and "The Lufa's are for swinging". The problem is SIMPLE MATH. Now math is not a strong suit for most people, so here it is. Since I bought in Hillsborough in 2014, I would say conservatively half the residents are original. This would mean that the half that moved would ALL have to move elsewhere in TV and ALL have to move 6 times to average 3. The idea is rediculous on its face. Now some do move 3 times, some more, but it is not the norm.

To be honest, I think you have been around the villages enough times to know where everything is, and where you want to buy. Just be thoughtful, and don't over downsize and you will be fine.
