Thankfully they visit us, and we can go out there for visits anytime we want. We would never live there again unless the kids moved us back to put us in a senior home, lol. Hopefully at 71 we have a bit more time ahead of us to enjoy The Villages. Oh, and we would never have moved to FL if The Villages didn’t exist. We moved here for The Villages lifestyle, not the FL lifestyle.

"Not for the FL lifestyle." -
Not sure what to make of a comment like that having lived in FL my entire adult life. The "Bubble" "lifestyle" is only so big. Eventually one has to leave T V.
For instance, going to the airport to go back to CA. Or even shopping for more than groceries. MAJOR MEDICAL episodes, one will find themselves in the midst of FL non-bubble as T V hospital can't handle ER open heart surgeries. What can one come up with that is "FL lifestyle"??
"Ya'll come back now" ??
Politics??
FL is a GREAT state, albeit a hot and humid cest pool at times. If one is fleeing CA to live cheaper, what happens in CA needs to STAY in CA. Florida doesn't need the CA lifestlye.
The Bubble IS FL and is for now free from lunacy.
2022? Was an especially great year in CA if I remember correctly. /s
