Several years ago I saw an example of good security at Century Village in Pembroke Pines, Florida. I went to visit my aunt who was living there at the time. When I got to the entrance I was asked why I was there. I told them I was there to visit my aunt. So the person at the gate got on the phone and called my aunt to verify that she was due to have a visitor. Then they let me in. It was a large development with private roads.
That will never happen in The Villages because all the roads are public and anyone can drive through. Furthermore, we are known to surrounding areas as being a "rich community" with lots of good stuff for enterprising burglars.
