Default Full Time Vs Part Time Villagers

My husband and I are seriously considering moving to TV when we retire in 2013. We cannot decide whether it is best to purchase a home for residing there during the late Fall to early Spring (which I'm leaning towards) or buying a home to live there year round (which is what my husband prefers).

We have already visited TV a few times, but never stayed longer than a week at a time and the times we were there it was in the early Spring and quite hot. Is the heat an issue for seniors during the summer? Do many people leave during the hottest months?]

I have been told that the full time residents of TV comprise roughly 70% of the Village population. However, I have noticed that there are a lot of homes for rent in TV on a monthly basis.

I wonder if it presents a problem to full time residents of TV to live next to homes whereby there are renters moving in and out each month?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
