We bought in this northern area for several reasons. More house for our money, mature trees, no bond, cheaper taxes, more shopping, and upgrades already done by prior owner. Spanish Springs is 10 minutes by golf cart, Sumter Landing is 25 minutes by golf cart.
That just works out for us.

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!
