[villages07]

K-9.... thanks for that site; interesting, but, I'm not sure how credible. If you read the fine print it says it goes back 7 years. I find some of the assault, larceny, burglary figures for 32162 a bit difficult to believe. For grins, I put in a zip code for a not so nice area close to Washington DC and The Villages was very close to this other zip for assault, burglary, property crime.... ain't no way. The other zip had a murder rate index of 375 compared to the national 100 index...to give you an idea of how bad it was.

I think the 32162 zip has developed so much in the past 7 years that the numbers are skewed or just plain wrong.

Regardless, the basic message in this thread is lock your doors, be wary of suspicious behavior, and report intruders to the police.
