Yes, different strokes for different folks, and there is no right or wrong. Hubby and I moved here six months ago after thinking about it for 7 years. It is an adjustment but that's what life is, making adjustments, and learning to step outside your comfort zone. I work full time so my experience is rather different from most. The husband is retired and enjoys the daily amenities of The Villages.
Eight years years ago we moved from Maine to Bradenton (that's when we discovered The Villages) stayed 2.5 years, missed the family, etc. So, we ended up back in Maine and after four years of realizing our family and friends have their own lives and, that while the state is gorgeous, the weather isn't really that great for much of the year we headed for The Villages.......no regrets. Will it be forever? Who knows, but that's the beauty of life...and choices.
Good luck on your move back home and maybe we'll see you again!
