The new neighborhoods are going to be close to the new town square, but a fair trek to Sumter landing and a long way from spanish springs. The new neighborhoods will facilitate making friendships with neighbors as everyone is moving in together. If you go pre-owned, you can choose to live anywhere, for example we like the area close to 466 and west of Buena Vista because of it's proximity to almost everything. Some people like the older sections, and some like the northwest corner in marion county - in other words there is something to like about every area, and it just depends on what your priorities are. No bad choices

Good luck with your sale and move to TV. Over the last 10 years we have looked at a lot of places but TV has the Golf Car factor. The ability to virtually do everything from getting groceries to going out for entertainment by Golf Car facinates us. We currently have a great house that has a backyard with trees and Sope Creek. Thought we would never leave this house but the more I experience a potential TV lifestyle the more attractive it gets. Have not found any other place that tops it. Really looking forward to our upcoming TV immersion. Sorry we won't get to meet but have a great time.
We too are living in our "retirement dream home" on a lake with all the toys. However, after experiencing the Villages, our dreams have taken a new form, and we will be residents of TV sometime in '12.
