We are going to rent for a couple of months to see if we like The Villages. We have lived in Florida for many years and finally retired so we are in search of a new place to live.
Is it really true that people rope off groups of chairs to save them? At what venues does this happen?
Is it true that most people are home by 9:00 or 9:30 pm due to limited activities in the evenings? We aren't big drinkers so the bar scene is not appealing to us.
Does it cost anything to belong to the various clubs? And, is it true that some clubs are closed to new members?
I would especially like to hear from people who make The Villages their primary home.
Thanks for providing additional information.
