Default Inside the Villages

Hi, I am reviewing The Villages as a possible retirement place. I plan on purchasing an inexpensive home (no mortgage) but wondering about other fees. I have read about bonds, curious about HOA fees, and costs such as groceries being more expensive in the Villages, and restaurants etc? HOA fees cover what? What is an example of additional expenses: mandatory and or optional? If I was interested in exercise classes how expensive /inexpensive are the extracurriculars? Single and concerned about my expenses. The homes seem reasonable but what else should I be concerned about?
Are indoor animals allowed? (2 cats as they are my substitute kids?)
