Leisureville
The part in the book that talks about the high rate of STDs in The Villages also made the NY Post, and it is usually the first thing people bring up to me when they hear I live in TV. I have to say, it irritates me. I heard Andrew Blechman, the author, interviewed on Public Radio and he chuckled and admitted that the STD rate is no higher than anywhere else in FL. I read the book and enjoyed it. I think parts of it were right on, but I definately think the author thinks that people who want to live in an adult community are selfish. Once he has raised his kids and gets to "our age" he may understand it.
