As Gracie has said before, we didn't even like Florida. But TV is a whole different deal. We are not there yet, but will spend Feb and Mar. there hoping to buy. We spent one afternoon looking at Stonecrest, and found the houses there very appealing. However, on a beautiful April Saturday, there was almost no one at the pools or rec center, the golf course was not busy, we saw few people out of their homes, in carts, on bicycles, walking........ We looked at each other and said "why in the world would be move here when we are obviously in love with The Villages? Couldn't think of a good reason, so Stonecrest was/is out of the picture. TV is like no place else that I have seen, my cousin lives in Sun City just outside of Austin, and while it is nice, there is no comparison in my opinion. My motivation is to enjoy the miriad of activities available and no place else has them to the extent of TV.
