Oh yeah, seen what is offered here. Seen what is offered elsewhere. Do like the security in some of the ones we looked at versus the slow down gates here. Actual ID and plate recorded of non residents. major +++

Its really how deep a person is willing to dig in their pocket books and what they want. And the level of living you want. Whether you want to pay for amenities or put the money into where you live. Our neighbor made the comment one day he's just been leaving his wallet on the dresser. Nothing left in it. Not saying the villages aren't a great place, but they are the 1000lb gorilla in the room. Everyone is going to compare everyplace else to it.

Like I said to each their own. But folks should know there are other options out there. We didn't when we first moved here.

We gave it some time. Will be giving it a little more till the lease runs out. Could still buy a resale here but it would have to fit the bill, but leaning the other way at the moment. Love our current neighbors and they wish we weren't going to move (to another home here or there).
