Is it the same as the amenity fee?

If not, how much extra is it?

You must be thoroughly confused by now, grr rex.

Q: What is the CDD Maint annual fee I read about?
A: This fee is for maintenance of common areas. It appears on the annual tax bill as a separate line item. I might add it is money well spent. Landscaping is very well kept.

Q: Is it the same as the amenity fee?
A: No. The amenity fee is billed monthly. It pays for all of the amenities including executive golf, swimming pools, rec center use, and literally dozens, maybe hundreds, of other activities. It is also a bargain.

graciegirl's comment is worth noting "The estimates on cost of living given by The Villages itself is pretty reliable".
