I think, internet service here in the Villages is going to cost you anywhere from $30-$50/month. The cheaper prices except for Xfinity Now are going to be promotions that will expire. You also have to include any taxes, fees and equipment charges. Some plans include it and some don't. In retrospect, this is extreemly cheap compared to the rest of the country.
As I've mentioned many times, Fiber, if you can get it is the best solution. I can tell you up in Liberty Park, Bonita and those surrounding areas were Quantum is putting in new fiber, people are signing up like crazy. Installation trucks everywhere and the techs tell me they are working a lot of overtime. So, competition and choice are good. Those sections South of 44 that had no fiber installed, no one knows if they will ever install fiber there but I haven't heard anything about it. Right now, Quantum is installing fiber where they have the "right of way" where previous CentryLink lines were installed North of 44. The cable companies are in trouble because they didn't anticipate the rate of "cord cutting" and these fiber deployments are hurting even more because once on fiber, prople don't switch for $5-$10/month promotional savings.
