No relation to the Morse family (we are from MI) but will gladly accept a check for this endorsement.
Kidding of course; or am I?

You obviously did what was right for you - good for you! Several people have posted that they were equally happy having bought pre-owned - good for them! People generally have a propensity to emotionally and positively, reinforce major decisions. They consider what they want, look around a lot, and finally make a decision. In most cases they are unlikely to second-guess that decision or have remorse. There are a few that have remorse and end up buying something else, or moving away, but they are in the minority. If you are a wannabe cruising this site you will find all kinds of opinions - most positive, but some negative. The Villages is not for everyone thankfully, because there is only going to be room for some 110,000 or so out of many millions of seniors in the U.S. In my opinion, it is a fabulous place for ACTIVE and SOCIAL seniors, and for those people, is like no other. If you are not particularly social or active there are other places with some of the ameneties of TV, but not all, and are somewhat cheaper. NOBODY should decide whether to live anyplace based on opinions they read on a message board, despite their being a lot of good information on here. Come and see what it is about for at least a week, if not more before deciding that this is it. If you are like many of us, you will be hooked, and if not there is probably another place that will suit you better.
