Wondering the same thing. A large percentage of this wish list is already here in The Villages or really close by. These corporations are not going to open a second or third location in a very seasonal small (relatively speaking) area.
The Villages has grown..when we first arrived (15) years ago, we had to drive for many things. The growth has been awesome, but most of what has been "wished" for is here, and duplicating it south of 466, in most cases, is not going to happen.
