I thought OP was asking about is it Safe outside of the bubble of TV. Not what warnings of what village to live in, due to ________ don’t buy there.
So OP I will give you places We don’t feel comfortable driving, because if you are in TV walking it would take a long while to be out of the edges
Inside TV we still have a fair amount of wildlife, bear, bird of prey, bobcats, coyotes, fox and of course gators. Walking early morning or evening one should always be careful especially the woods, ponds, and the prairies.
Once you are outside of the bubble some neighborhoods, say behind Russell Stover make me a little uneasy. Wildwood Post office is in a strip mall, with an Ace hardware, that we frequent, we used to go to restaurant and little shops on 301 Wildwood, but parking was a nightmare. As I type they are building a prefab 2 story parking garage, but many little businesses have closed. But you have Miz Cathy’s, thrift shop, and the train store. Hopefully with the parking some mom and pop will come back.
Really outside of TV, Once a month we go to Gainesville and enjoy restaurants and shopping. Clermont, we go to Costco, 5/3 bank and restaurants. Disney is 50 minutes along with the rest of the parks. We travel occasionally to Ocala, and Orlando, like any city some parts are not where I want to be day or night.
But once thing to consider living in TV, pretty much anything you need is within TV bubble. Yes if you live south of 44 it will take you 20-40 minutes to go to the northern areas, but compared to our northern house quality shopping was more than an hour.
