I would also want to steer clear of that area due to the close proximity to Wildwood - which is not Southern charm - but a rural, blighted area with lots of crime that might spill over to that section of The Villages. Lots of burglaries now of the appliances and hardware from the houses under construction around St. James.
Tbugs is entitled to state his (or her) opinion on this forum. I respectfully disagree that buying in an area of TV that is near Wildwood might result in being subjected to a higher crime rate.
