I owned it for six months and quickly realized it is nothing more than a glorified rollerskate --- no airbags, little protection in a sea of good and bad drivers, drunks and even kids behind the wheel visiting grandparents.
So I sold it and have no regrets.
Be clear-headed when you move here...if you're a golfer, go ahead and buy one. Otherwise, remember that this is a community more than 30 miles long and growing. Do you really want to putter around in a vehicle that only goes 18 miles per hour?
20 miles north to south. Will likely grow south of 470 but not yet.

20mph (though many go a bit faster than that)

Yes, I really want to go everywhere I can by golf cart.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
