Basically, what is being said is that no one should move to The Villages with a NEED to have a job in order to live here. Most of the jobs are in the $8-$10per hour range and even those are not easy to come by. It may be nice to supplement your retirement pension or Social Security but it should not be NEEDED.
If it is, you would be missing out on lots of the lifestyle we moved to The Villages to enjoy on a daily basis. Why not stay where you are until you are able to retire on enough money to fully enjoy the lifestyle of The Villages?
If you merely want to have a job in order to keep busy, there are volunteer opportunities. I work as a volunteer at the Christian Food Pantry one day a week and that gives me a sense of accomplishment. We could always use more volunteers.
