Never. But I stopped using "The Villages" for my city and now use Lady Lake. Reason: "The Villages" is considered to be primarily Sumter County, and having to point out that MY Villages home is physically located in the city of Lady Lake, in Lake County, is annoying to me. So I just say Lady Lake and that expresses what they needed to know.
