If he asked about "hidden overall costs" to live in TV and play golf, something like the "cost to buy tees" would be an example. Private club golfers don't buy golf tees ... move to The Villages and you're buying tees all the time. Unless of course, you adopt the habit of picking them up from range and collecting them, on slow, "non-mat" days.

Many thanks, Brian. That was the original intent of this inquiry. In my mind "home costs" are a subset of "total costs to thrive" and the residents of The Villages are uniquely qualified to chime in on this subset of my retirement expenses.
Great to hear opinions on the periphery of the inquiry, but you've lasered in on the question.
