I've been here for 4 years, south of 44. I've ventured far to the both, and farther south, east and west to explore all areas of The Villages.

It's beautiful everywhere, and most of the people I've encountered have been happy and seem to be enjoying their sunset years.

Unfortunately, there are a few that have no idea what it takes to run a business, nor what it costs to build and maintain things.

They seem to live their lives with a permanent gray cloud over their heads, and a permanent frown on their faces.

Me, I cannot believe the cornucopia of surroundings and activities that are available to everyone for less than $299 per month.

Me, I'm quite happy, and I appreciate the developer's efforts to make The Villages one of the best places to live.

Yes, I helped run a small business that grew into a large successful business that operates worldwide. I know what things cost, and how to run a profitable business. To me, The Villages is amazing, and I wonder why there's nothing like it elsewhere. Lakewood Ranch comes close.
