I'm the original poster. I've been quietly watching and monitoring all posts every day.

Yes, the thread went beyond my original question, but open discussion is good in my opinion. I'm comfortable with the discussions going on within this thread....so continue on if you like, but I've gotten my original question answered.

I've gotten several replies via email, PM, and on this thread. I appreciate every one of them. I think what it all comes down to is what appeals to each person.

Someone graciously sent me several pictures and a couple of videos of Solivita. It shows a much smaller community with very nice amenities, but much quieter than TV. Some people prefer a smaller quieter community. They would not be comfortable in TV.

I don't need any additional pics or videos of TV since TV provides so many on their website and because of what I read in TOTV. TV provides a large number of activities and choices, and potential to be active and socialize. Some people prefer a larger community with more activity and choices. They would be bored in Solivita.

Several people mentioned other things about each community. Some of it is rumor, but some of it is fact. All of the information....every bit of it.....is helpful.

Ultimately, it boils down to what appeals to you.

Thanks everyone....EVERYONE.....for your input.
