The Villages is not 100% crime free but comes mighty close to it. Even the supposed armed robbery at Gators Dockside on Dec. 1 has never been confirmed as being an actual event.

People have come on here before me and tried to post what is happening in The Villages and are met with resistance such as this. They have posted about the kids in the villages and posters come on here posting as if these are just a bunch of kids trying to have fun... Uh huh... I've seen them...
They have posted about coming out to their golf carts and kids having taken over sitting in them... They have posed about the cars being vandalized at the squares and the kids trying to break into the sales office. Each time, this is the response they get.
The Villages thought there were enough problems with stealing from the homes, they put GPS's in their appliances to catch the crooks. They now have EXTRA security at Brownwood!
I love it here.. I'm trying to get many of my friends to move here. It's beautiful! But don't think for a minute that I don't watch and get plate numbers to any vehicle that I don't think belongs here... Or stop them and ask questions.
For crying out loud... They just caught a guy stealing packages from the doors of residents! It was because people were paying attention they caught him! But as long as people believe nothing happens here... We are easy pickins.....
Enjoy The Villages... I do... I just do it with my eyes wide open. I don't shrug people off when they try to tell me that something happened. I WANT to know....
Yep.. Now I have my 15 minutes of fame. I will log off knowing... At least one person listened and will be more cognizant of their surroundings.
