I've been lurking around TOTV for several months now, and I love the honest information I get from everyone here. I'm pretty sure that TV is where we want to move to when we're ready to retire, but I still feel I need to research other options....if for no other reason than to reinforce why we think TV is the place for us.

I understand that TV is either the largest, or one of the largest, active adult communities in the entire country. I understand that most places won't come close to the sheer number of activities. But are there any large communities that are comparable at all?

Two that I've seen on the 'net are Solivita and Valencia Lakes (both in FL), yet I haven't seen them mentioned in TOTV. Does anyone have any experience visiting either of those communities? I understand that they are smaller, but how do they compare to TV?

Are there any other large active adult communities that are comparable to TV?
