I am surprised that anyone is surprised that The Villages is so crowded. there was no question in my mind when I first visited The Villages that it was going to be over built. what I didn't anticipate was that the economy would not recover. I believed that when it began getting crowded I would sell and move. However values dropped and I refused to take a financial beating. the summer here began getting crowded two years ago and this crowding will continue as more people move in

The square mileage is small in comparison to population and the infrastructure not updated enough to accommodate traffic. Add to this renters visitors, etc and I feel like a sardine
