Not very helpful.

50-60K after retirement.

I am simply attempting to see if I CAN afford to live in The Villages. I have not yet retired. I expect to sell my current home for enough to pay for a TV property, no mortgage.
Hutch; With no debt and no mortgage you should be able to live a very comfortable and active lifestyle with a few extravigances on 50 - 60k. (assuming your health insurance and health maintenence costs are under control - always a variable to consider)
