Don, if you desire to live in an area with gates, (it would not be my preference but I respect yours...), you may be very interested in Stonecrest or Spruce Creek adjacent to The Villages. These are very controlled communities as far as public access and they may be the type of security that makes you most comfortable.

Unfortunately, for your desires, The Villages is a retirement area that includes the public and I don't see that ever changing. Most of us have no problem living in the type of scenario in which we have lived most of our lives but has an additional layer of security, still it is by no means a fortress. Enjoy your day!
