This is just my second summer since moving here in December 2022. I absolutely love the warm winters here and being able to be outdoor and active. I wasn’t so sure I’d enjoy summers though because of the heat/humidity, but was willing to tolerate them as a trade off for living here year round.

I have to say that summer has become my favorite season here in The Villages. Thoroughly enjoying the lack of crowds and the ease of getting in restaurants with no reservations, plenty of seating at the town squares, light traffic, easy-to-get tee times, empty pickleball courts, uncrowded pools, rentals in my neighborhood remaining empty for most of the season, etc, etc.

Regarding the weather and temps, I enjoy getting up early in the morning for a golf cart ride and already in shorts and flip flops. The afternoons are very tolerable. If I’m in my golf cart there’s a good breeze, and other wise I have found plenty of indoor activities to keep busy in the nice AC. Evenings are great after 630 or so to get out for dinner, music at the squares, walks, boozey bingo at Sawgrass, etc.

I sorta now wish summer would never end. Anyone else enjoying summer in The Villages?
