If you don’t get village ID card you can’t use village amenities. But, any commercial property or Squares don’t need Village ID card cause they are open to public. Now I heard of some development not in villages off 472 that use MMP’s (golf cart paths) which again don’t need Village ID, but MMPs are owned by villages districts.

As far as village hospital on 441 I had no negative experiences. But so far I’m pretty healthy. Can’t comment on emergency rooms cause haven’t had need to go yet?

Most villages in districts you can enter by pushing red button being they are public roads, more of traffic control than security. Some high end villas in villages has private entry, to enter them you have call and be invited in. I’m sure get more comments on this?

As far as low quality the villages offer variety of properties at different levels of pricing new I think? Custom built homes to please. Most are standard for price range and some upgrade from range. Resales are up and down the scale. Another thing villages offer lifestyle IMO that can’t be matched for price of amenities fees, IMO why they can get little more for their new housing. Usually higher end homes in prime location go very quickly for IMO outrageous price, but people will pay for what they want if they can afford it.
