There are several categories of Villagers that I know of:

Frogs – Full timers here til they croak,

Snowbirds – (Often known as Grandparents) – Part timers who spend some Fall, most of Winter and some Spring months in T.V,

Finances and / or family circumstances often dictate a Frog vs. Snowbird decision.

Snowflakes – People who drop in from time to time. Often those still working; sometimes those who rent out their homes to Snowbirds and who use it when they can,

Renters – Snowbirds who rent for a month or more.

Did I miss any, gang?

Much of the social activity that we take part in (we’re Snowbirds / Grandparents) revolves around the neighborhood social groups of which. in reality, renters don’t seem to be a part.

That said, we have socialized with renters that we have met at the neighborhood pool (a great place to socialize – never been there without some new friend to be striking up a conversation) or met in their driveway over a wave and a hello.

Sometimes you just have to get out there and yell, “Hello!”

Also a lot of socialization revolves around activities; golf groups, pickleball groups, dance groups, etc. So the more you do the more there is to do!

Good luck on you decision what you decide, you will enjoy it.
