Exactly! I think the salespeople use that as a sales tactic. By looking at the map, or measuring in your golf cart as you did, its fairly easy to see where the center of the Villages will be, and its not Hemingway. Anyways, as mentioned previously, I think its rather irrelevant. What's more important is whether one's home is close to the activities and facilities you use on a regular basis.
