If you live in the "historic section" you'd use Lady Lake for any official documents, but you can also use The Villages for stuff like signing up for coupons or rewards cards at stores. As I understand it (and I might be wrong on this): if you live in a CDD, you'd use The Villages. If you don't, you'd use Lady Lake. The Historic Area isn't assigned to a CDD, it's just Lady Lake, with some limited oversight by the VCCDD.
