Leesburg has a population of about 27,000 residents while Wildwood has a population of about 15,700. In addition to Newell, Lake Denham, and Dabney, I believe that the following villages are entirely in Lake County. However, I am not sure how many are In Leesburg.

- Orange Blossom Gardens
- Silver Lake
- Oak Meadow
- El Cortez
- Del Mar
- Mira Mesa
- La Reynalda
- La Zamora
- Pine Hills
- Pine Ridge

It seems like the Villages should have representation on the Leesburg city council.
