So please subtract about $2400/year from that 7K false equivalency. And for the coup de gras---this is NOT Illinois.

Apples and oranges is right... If Illinois got the crime under control, it would be head and shoulders above The Villages. All a person needs is one pool, a couple of golf courses, the live music is better in Chicago as well as the restaurants and entertainment. Who would be shoveling at this age, condos take care of all of the that and beautiful Lake Michigan is right there. Mass transportation and a great airport are near and best of all, top notch medical care is available.
