You are correct in that the probability of getting struck by lightning is very low here in the Villages even though central Florida is the lightning capital of the USA, but if it does happen, it will be a life changing experience for you and your family.
For less than the cost of one criuse, you can have a system installed and lower the probability of you home burning down or getting damaged from a lightning strike to near zero since nothing man made is 100%.

17 documented cases in what period of time? Ever, since The Villages was first created? In the past year? Five years? Decade?
And how many documented cases during the same period of time, have there been lightning strikes on homes without LPS? Of those documented cases, how many have had minor damage, and how many have had significant damage requiring the homeowner to vacate until the home was repaired/replaced?
