We golfed with a couple at Hilltop who lived in the Village of Silver Lake. They have lived here for years and their ages/health issues prevent them from driving a car. They only have their older electric golf cart for transportation or rely on the help/kindness of neighbors.

They had no idea where our Village of Bonita was, she had only been to Lake Sumter once when she was with a neighbor who took her, and literally had no idea what the Villages looked like other than the historic side of 441 and the Spanish Springs area.

She said they know the Villages has grown but they have no desire to see it all, they're happy in their little corner of it.
