Some suggestions from a relatively new Villager (we bought in December, closed right after Christmas and were fully moved in early Feb):

1) Do at least one market night at SS or LSL

2) Drive up and down 27/441, 466 and 466A. That will give you a good idea of what stores, restaurants, etc are readily available.

3) Drive around in several different neighborhoods. Each village here has a different feel. Most new construction is south of 466A. Drive from Morse to Buena Vista and you'll pass thru several villages.

4) Don't be afraid to stop and talk to people - most of us are pretty friendly. And don't be afraid to stop at several different rec centers to check out the facilities. Grab a copy of the Recreation News (published weekly and available at all of the rec centers).

Most importantly, have fun.
