I personally would NEVER buy used in TV. Much better experience to move into an area at the same time as all of your neighbors. Plus the new areas, the average age is closer to 50, not 80 like Spanish Springs.
I inherited my mom's house in Spanish Springs. There are "younger" people moving into this area due to these factors as well as proximity to Spanish Springs, close Amenities, within our little area, and lots of shopping. I can walk to 2 different pools. The are more and more lots being sold and rebuilt on based on the age of the homes, and these are done by younger people. I have been coming to the villages for 25 years, and have seen/ visited all the other villages as they were built and through the years. Spanish Springs is by far my favorite! Added bonus- less traffic, easy drive to Ocala, Leesburg, etc.
