I could care less about playing golf so I like it that only the golfers appear to be paying for golf there. Also they seem to have first class fitness centers and indoor pools which TV lacks. Are they sufficient for the size of the community?
Too, it gets colder in the winter and hotter in the summer there, at least July and August, but if the humidity is lower it would feel about the same as in TV in the summer.

Sounds like it could be place for you. Good luck. Just a couple of thoughts on the indoor pool.In my former Del Webb Community, they had to rip out the pool three times in ten years for three to four months at a time due to mold hidden in the walls. Residents were upset swimming in the building with hidden mold abd not knowimg it. Indoor pools and hot tubs are very difficult to maintain but perhaps in SCTX where the humidity is lower it is not so much a problem. Our indoor pool was not always accessable since it seemed to be used a lot by fee based activities like water aeoebics, also lap swimmers roped off one half of the pool etc. As it was we had only one indoor pool for 13,000 residents, about the same ratio as SCTX. Our state of the art fitness centers(2) were also very crowdedbut that seems to be the case no matter where you go. In the final analysis, we have to go where it suits us. If that means indoor pools or an IKEA store we have to go for it.
