A very small minority of Villages, seem intent on changing anything and everything about The Villages, if it doesn't suit their selfish needs or wants.

Anyone who believes outlining their home with LED lights is classy, attractive, or appropriate in any way, needs a dose of reality. It's looks cheap, tacky, unattractive and it makes your home look it's inhabited by refuges from a local carnival or trailer park.

To explain it in language that even the deniers may understand ... if it was desirable or attractive in the mainstream world, The Villages would be offering it as an option on their new homes.

That is your opinion. We bought here because we like the convenience and activities The Villages offered. We had no expectation of everything remaining unchanged as that is highly unrealistic or we would still be watching black and white TVs.
