The problem is that many of the opinions being tossed about are based on headlines and zero evidence or fact.
Is the Villages a "55+ community?" Yes, they are. Are there people under 55 living in the Villages? Absolutely, but that is not inconsistent with the "55+ community" label. Unless you can show that more than 20% of the occupied homes in the Villages do not have at least one occupant who is over 55 then the Villages qualifies as a 55+ community.
"Pay for other people that come into villages and don't follow the rules?" How many people, which rules, and what would the difference in pay be? Are there some non-residents/non-guests using the pools? Probably. Are our pools and pickleball courts overrun with outsiders? No. Could the Recreation Dept. do a better job of keeping outsiders away? Maybe, but not at my pool, we aren't overrun. Which pools/courts truly have a problem with outsiders? Anywhere from none to all depending on who wrote the post or the letter to the editor. What is lacking is any evidence or facts.
