Hi Thistruck,

Although there are gates, TV is not a "gated community". The roads are public. That means, among other things, the roads are paved and maintained by the county.

What makes TV a retirement community are the facts that:
  • 80 percent of the homes must have someone 55 or older living in them
  • No one under 19 can live in TV

What makes it a fabulous retirement community are the pools, recreation centers, golf courses, town squares, shops and restaurants, golf cart lifestyle, bowling centers, movie theaters, hundreds of clubs and activities, beautifully maintained commons areas, etc.

If you are looking for a gated community, you're in luck! There are probably tens of thousands of beautiful gated communities all across America, many of which are retirement communities.

On the other hand, there's no place like TV.
