The right Village for you depends on your interests. Some neighborhoods have lots of social get togethers and some do not. Our friends live in an area where folks are friendly but they on don't have block parties or many village specific get togethers. Our neighborhood has some sort of party or gathering almost weekly and our Village has a social club that is very active with things going on every day. Just stop folks and ask...we've all been new here and we know what is like making these decisions. Besides most of us love to talk about our Village.
Don't worry too much about how far the Village is from a square. When we go to a square, it is always for fun...music, craft show, a movie etc and we are not in a hurry. We almost always take our golf cart and although it only takes us 10 mins via the direct route, we often go the "long way" because we simply enjoy the ride.
