-people hired to fix the Villages infrastructure post weather events.
-people left temporarily homeless from a weather event elsewhere.

Which ones don’t deserve to be here?
Basically, the ones that don't do things the way I do:
- If I'm full time then the snowbirds are a pain
- If I have a long term lease then those renting only three months are too temporary
- If I have a three month lease then I don't understand why anyone would rent for just 30 days
- If I'm a monthly renter then I don't want those weekly renters living next to me
- And don't even mention those who stay for only a few days.

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