I live in the Northern part of The Villages and I love it.

The reason: I am right on the Summerfield border and 25-30 minutes from Ocala.

It takes me 15-20 minutes by car to get to Sumter Landing and about 10 minutes by car to get to Spanish Springs.

In my opinion, it is a great location to live.

Best of luck!

We're looking at TV for retirement soon. There's some nice houses and nice neighborhoods up north of St Simons, in the Nancy Lopez/Hwy 42 area.
It seems it's a long way to Spanish Springs, even longer to Lake Sumpter. The Morse compound seems like it cuts off that area from rest of the Villages.

Please, educate me so I don't write off an area from lack of knowledge. Your pros and cons are appreciated!
