Please bear in mind my comments are not directly aimed at renters but rather the concept of renting in a retirement community. Some say its not a retirement community but an over 55 community. So I redirect and ask why The Villages media department claims "you can live like a millionaire with your retirement savings" It doe not say your occupational salary.
I said in another post the reason I am concerned about this "vacation destination mentality is that it distracts from sound financial planning and objects and needs for our retirement community. Should the Districts act as if they are a staff seeing to the needs of cruise line passengers or residents of a retirement community in which for most residents their last and final resting place?
In my humble view we have a serious communication problem here and it is misdirecting the intent of what was told we were buying into.
The renting process has created a population velocity increasing the demands on our amenities multi-modal paths roads, etc and hence reduces our quality of life. There are a number of people who have purchased homes solely for the purpose of renting them and as one observant poster shared leads to a motel mentality.
I opine you decide
