I just moved to The Villages on October 25th. Today I received my first Comcast Bill.

$89.10 which includes $29.95 installation. So my next bill should be in the neighborhood
$59.15 /month. TV charge is $16.96/month (for what I call basic TV). Internet is $36.99/month. So far the internet service is OK, but slower than my RR turbo in Vestal, NY.

I also subscribe to MLB, over the internet, which gives me more than enough baseball. That said I am shut out for live broadcasts, in NY when to Phillies play the Mets, plus all NYY games are delayed. But they are available on demand.

I am making due with my cell phone after having a land line with the same number for 60 years. So far not a problem that I know of. Thinking of using Skype for a "land line" here in Florida. I understand I can transport Skype to NY at no additional charge. Would be interested if anyone knows about this.
