It depends on what you hoped for.
No Las Vegas show girls.
Not much night life after ten.
No Broadway shows or New York food.
Not much in the way of wonderful driving habits.
Not many people under fifty.
No pizza that we all can agree on.
The parades are disappearing and so has the Buffalo and this causes many to really be sad.
No gambling on site.
Not much crime.
A paper that just doesn't report anything, according to a few.
And if you are annoyed that the great minds that built this whole place and run this whole place are mega, mega, rich and do not allow certain folks to speak on the squares during the events that take place every four years....than you won't like it here.
There is a lot not perfect, and some things wrong, To me the greatest problem is the lack of a very good medical center like we have in Cincinnati, but I cannot see that the powers that be can be blamed for that. Doctors are free agents and many don't want to administer to the aging population for any number of reasons. Including the low fees from medicare.
This place is well run and beautifully maintained.
No city of this size run by traditional methods can come close to this place, The Villages, in my humble opinion.
And on the plus side if folks find themselves disappointed and unhappy, it isn't that difficult to sell a home here and return to whence they cometh.
But those who are hoping to be happy here, you will be as happy here as you are there, only in beautiful surroundings.
Whether you are happy or not is usually up to you.
