I doubt that you will see FIOS in The Villages. Comcast has a franchise agreement with the developer (I might be off with the terminology). In addition, Verizon will not be expanding FIOS beyond what they have committed to building. If they have made a commitment to build out your community, they will provide the service. Verizon has found that the cost of providing FIOS service is very high.

My knowledge of this is from a retiree newsletter.
