We did a lifestyle visit there just before The Villages.
Del Webb is the 55 plus among all age neighborhoods.
Within Del Webb there were (in Jan. of this year) approx.
400 people there. They have 1 clubhouse and 1 pool.

They have a few clubs. The one shopping center has
A Publix and not much else. No gas station or restaurants
Without going into Ponte Vedra (8 miles away).

The houses are all FRAME construction which I find surprising
Due to the closeness to the ocean.
A house that is 2,500 square feet, 3 car, lanai was in the
Mid$300's.

We couldn't figure out why NO ONE was around during the day.
I was told 50-60 per cent still work. (That's out of 400 people).

After visiting there we came BACK To T.V. and loved the energy and everything about it.
In my mind there was no decision!

Just my opinion...
