Great post. We have a home in Sumter County. We like being between LSL & Brownwood. I believe taxes are slightly higher in Marion, but we love the mature trees there. Lake County has no bonds, a plus. Sink holes can be anywhere, in Florida especially. They are more prevalent in some counties than others. So I'd check the previous threads on that issue. But all the villages are nice.
