Since I haven’t moved to The Villages yet but would like to, what are others saying or doing about this to avoid exposure to dangerous chemicals that is causing this? (If you haven’t heard this yet, it’s simple to google it and find the info). I’m truly afraid but want to find an answers and solutions to ease my worries. Thank you
There are quite a few that spend almost as much time on the golf course playing as in their home. How dose the Villages Parkinson's compare to the national average?
