Manned Gate House or just a gate?
I know someone will know this answer but I can't figure it out. Why do some entrances have a manned gate house but right across the street there is only a gate? For instance, entrance to Hadley off of Morse has a manned gate whereas directly across the entrance to Hemingway has just a gate. The entrance to Sanibel off of Morse has a manned gate but at the other end, the entrance to Gilchrist, has only a gate. Across from the gated entrance to Gilchrist the entrance to Pinellas has a manned gate. The entrance to Belvedere has a manned gate house but right across the roundabout the entrance to Winifred has just a gate. There are MANY, MANY examples of this throughout The Villages and I could go on and on but you get the idea. I realize that the purpose of gates is to control traffic but I cannot figure out the "plan". I can't figure out why entrances across from each other have one of each or why there's a manned gate at one end of a through street but not at the other end etc. Can someone answer this so I can move on to other equally unimportant questions? LOL
