Location:
In looking at different squares, do you find the music is concentrated to age groups? I heard that it’s 40-50’s music in Spanish Springs, and works up in years as you go south.
Wondering if Eastport area will be more likely to be from the 1980s and up with younger people or do you find all age groups throughout? Once the Eastport area is completed in a few years.
Social:
We moved to a new construction area back in the 1990’s fast forward to now and most of our friends and neighbors are retiring and moving. So, looking to start over with like ages. Do you find moving to new builds vs resale has a bigger difference on your social gathering or did you find most social groups within the activities you join?

Some thoughts that may help out:
-Don't worry about which bands play where at all. They all rotate around.
-There's a big 'sales pitch' about Eastport being younger but honestly it doesn't feel like much younger. Yes it may seem to be more 60's vs. 70's and 80's but it still feels like a retirement community.
Pros- you'll be in the newest area when it's built out, newest/arguably nicest town square, closest to Clermont/Orlando etc. for real food.
Cons-it gets tiring having to drive 20-30 mins to go anywhere right now, and likely not changing for 1-2 good years. Rumors are that the fancy rooftop hotel being built in Eastport may still be years away.
Middleton has this sales pitch of an 'all ages' family downtown and when you drive through it, it does look nice, except for one big problem. It's EMPTY. Will take years to fill that out as well with food options, etc.
