Anyone age 18 or older can BUY a home in the Villages. But they can't live there til they're 19, and they wouldn't be allowed to join the competitive sports leagues til they're 55 I believe - and they can't use the adult pools or sports pools til they turn 30.
Why 18? Because that's when you are legally an adult and can sign your name to a deed. Of course, if you're emancipated, you can be as young as 16. If I had won powerball when my parents were retiring, back when I was in my 20's, I totally would've bought them their choice of retirement home. But no I wouldn't have wanted to live in their house in their retirement community.
