The pool situation varies by village, but I believe those who frequent the Tamarind Grove pool adjacent to Trailwinds might have more skin in the game. Also , I suspect after hours exec course trespassers are more numerous say, on Sandhill, than Escambia for the same reason. Airbnb's are a blight on our community, in fact most peaceful communities, and we should do everything possible to ban them (and it can be done)
Those were the worst things to be developed in the start of this millennium. I would vote for any politicians who were for strangling these parasites with regulation. Airbnbs are a blight for sure. They infringe on those who have reasonable expectations for a normal neighborhood and lifestyle.
