I also highly doubt that 90% of people in TV are retirees. I'm on a street of 12 homes and 2 of them in total are owned by retirees. Fairly typical in my Village south of 44.
That’s absolutely the truth. It’s 55+. Retirement age is 67. I know lots of people who live here that aren’t retired. I also know lots of people who’d like to have a higher end place to go other than Anglers. There isn’t one place here I crave to go back to. Even for a cocktail. I’d drive to Mathers in Orlando for a great HH and great drink. If there was a smaller establishment with a fantastic drink/food menu, I’d happily pay extra for that.
