This place has always had part time residents. You don’t think the business model is set up for that?

Seriously, stop believing what you read. You aren’t even here. TOTV represents probably 5% of the Villagers. The VLOGGERS, same thing, they need to complain to get views, no one will watch a YouTube video saying everything is great.
Your advice is to deny what can be seen with your own eyes. You are right about those who need to gin up fear & negativity to shore up the NEED for their “informative” services; however, denial means no improvements are sought because none is perceived as being necessary. That’s not good. The challenges in TV are unique. Most who move there would have no idea what a sinkhole is or what typically causes them, for instance. Denying their existence does not make them any less true. However, there is, as always, power in information. Anyone who tours TV & comes away with the impression that it is DECLINING is practicing excellence at denial probably because they envious since cannot afford to live there or they lack the bravery to take the plunge. TOTV is the opposite of The Daily Sun. Take an average of the two & you’ll have a clearer view of your probable Villages lifestyle.
