I love my Villages community. Have been visiting my relatives in TV since 1992 I have never felt different. I felt fortunate when my husband (who had lived in many many places) let us give TV a try, and then when he lived here, called it, “Living the dream”. I feel safe here, I don’t know if the lack of diversity, of age, of ethnicity, of religion etc contributes to the peace, whatever, the sum total of what makes up this place, is just right for me. Ok, so Publix is too expensive, we could have more sidewalks and so on, it is not heaven. But, I am proud of Florida, and the people who live here. Maybe there are better places, but it is here that I am truly happy.
