we have no traffic or challenging roadways like morse and buena vista blvds, odell circle, stillwater trail, etc - so we have few motor vehicle accidents. travel on foot of by bike and golf cart is a breeze. we have lovely lakes and sports facilities and we are home to the villages original recreation center! the historic side even enjoys its own doggie park! and we have a brick and mortar post office to boot with routine daily business hours.

many of us live in manufactured houses, often mistakenly called moblie homes even though there is nothing mobile about them! as some of the units became worse for the wear, they have been replaced by site built homes. but the fact that we are the historic side means that purchases in our villages do not hit you with a bond payment. our infrastructure has bbeen paid up for years, so now we just pay to maintain it rather than build it!

and that's what is special about the villages - there is a style and an ambiance for everyone! we all believe we live in the best village - and we do - because not one is better than the other - each is the best it can be! - and our neighbors make it so!

after folks have toured south of 466 and south of 466a, they owe it to themselves to visit north of 466 and the historic side so tat they can see where the villages really began.

Could you please describe to me just where the "Historic Area " is? We will be living in Briar meadow. Is that included?

Thanks!
