I know full time residents who see no need to leave The Villages. I also know full time residents who would travel 365 days a year if they could. Of course such issues s health finance, etc play a role in what residents do or do not do, in addition to family commitments.

I lost a boyhood friend from my hometown recently. I called another friend as the three of us were still very close. This friend would not leave my hometown. I onced asked him to come visit me in Minneapolis and we go to the Mall Of America, etc. His reply was we have a mall here. so with the passing of our friend I was surprised to hear him finally say that time was runing short for he and his wife and he was coming to Florida.

Many of us have learned not to deal in absolutes as life is dynamic and so the never say never crowd has much validity
