Just so you know, by far and away , the largest number of people that move to the villages are from the state of florida. That should tell you a little something.

When my parents decided to move to the area from Arkansas, they decided on Stonecrest, against my huge protests. They were able to get a very large house on a very large lot at about 20% less than TV. They new they had made a mistake within 4 months and put there house in Stonecrest up for sale. It took a year and a half to get it sold and they lost about $40k. They were able to find a very nice house in TV.

Not that everyones experience of stonecrest would be the same but they hated their neighbors, they paid over 6 grand to just have my father join the golf course the first year. they only had one 18 hole and one 9 hole course and the Daily Sun is the best propoganda in the world. Everyday they read about all the fun things going on in TV.
