No regrets at all from me.

1. I've got a far better house here than the condo I'd have wanted "up north."

2. I've got friendly and fun neighbors here; we get together every month. My neighbors up north were friendly, too, but we had two get-togethers a year. Waved at each other as we travelled up and down the street.

3. I've got friendly and fun acquaintances here. Some of them may never have entered my circle ordinarily, but now we're close.

4. As a widower of more than 11 years now, I must admit that I studiously avoid singles events (I still think of them as "meat markets"), but have many single friends met elsewhere around The Villages.

5. Yes, it's hot and humid during the summer. But, it was "up north," too.

6. The ice scraper in my car continues to do its job. Haven't seen any ice here in more than six years! [Admittedly, a couple of close calls, though!]

Come and enjoy. There's no way you'll regret it!
