Where we came from in the DC burbs, we would have to drive in heavy traffic at lrast 40 minutes to go to a restaurant AND wait for a table ANY time of year. The Villages is paradise all year long. Do a little personal adjusting in high season and ENJOY yourselves.
Buggyone makes a good point. I too went to the chili cookoff at 1 p.m. Plenty of parking, no lines for the chili, and easy access. So even special events can be navigated if you don't go at what is likely to be peak times.
