3. Does one have to be concerned with being able to get wind/hurricane/sinkhole insurance?
Any thoughts will be appreciated,

Insurance depends on the age of the home. Some companies won't insure if older than 1986-87. Check with The Villages Insurances Offices or AAA.
Utilities vary on construction, insulation, roof overs. I had a roof over of metal when I lived over there. Utilities were approximately $225. including amenities.
Lawn service is approximately $40-50. a month depending on company.
Some of the lots are bigger than villas.
