My point is why would Costco build inside The Villages? I agree that a Costco location off highway 75 would make much more sense for corporate profits.
IMHO it is because, especially compared to families raising children, we have significantly more disposable income with which to spend on the many "luxuries" and services Costco offers: Travel, HVAC, jewelry, electronics, etc.
