Really? You think that 104,000 makes a difference compared to 100,000?

But I do think that it is probable that the Villages uses the populations of Summerfield, Belleview, Fruitland Park, Wildwood and Leesburg to sell commercial properties as we attract customers, in cars, from all those communities.

For those of you who may not understand how big the Villages is, it is bigger than Ocala and Leesburg combined. I don't think that it's that much of an advantage for businesses in the Villages to be near those communities as is it for businesses in the surrounding communities to have the Villages nearby.
