Typically, The Villages try to sell out small areas at at time, which facilitate the buyers being of the same age. They usually also make available at the same time, different villages with the same economic values. This way, you not only get a village that has a similar age demographic, but also a similar economic demographic. When these areas are nearly filled up, they move on to another area. In the historic side, you are apt to find more 70-80+ year olds. Around Spanish Springs, a little younger. Lopez, younger yet and so on. Age related villages, IMO, will get more diverse thru time as people pass or move on and the pre-owned homes are sold again to possibly younger customers.
