Hard to say how you 'know'. In our case we took a 'whirlwind' tour of a lot of 'retirement' communities in and around the Ocala area one weekend in 2006 and my wife had previously found 'The Villages' in her Internet wanderings. We did not even have it on our 'tour' plan but my wife decided we should look around on the way back to the Orlando airport. We had less than 45 minutes the first visit. As soon as we drove in to the Spanish Springs area my wife exclaimed, "I love it, this is it." Maybe it was the comparison between The Villages and the other 'active retirement' communities, which, in our minds, there isn't much of a comparison. It happened fast for us tho.
