After 2 years very happy to be in a mixed neighborhood instead of “only old people” neighborhood. They love the neighborhood, the area, and yes the sound from the sports fields, and laughter from kids. Which is far less during busy school schedules, compared to summers.

Their thoughts some Old people really don’t tolerate young children, of their own family, they definitely won’t enjoy an active family neighborhood.
Yes, it seems we have a lot of Ex-Villagers living in Middleton. A fair number of my immediate neighbors are from The Villages.
