houstonscottio, Welcome to TOTV and good luck to your mom in her home search. You may also become a TV wannabee/gonnabee. I have traveled to Houston several times in the past few years as my company's corporate office is located in Houston on Old Spanish Trail near the Univ. of Houston campus. I was just in Houston 3 months ago for meetings at my company's office. Anyway, this is the place to find out about moving to and living in The Villages.
