My question to you out there, has anyone checked out any retirement communities in other areas that could have suited your needs, but you settled on TV instead. I am looking on line, but they always sound so great and then for whatever reason.....are not. I am sure there are folks out there that may have "considered" other locations before they decided to move here. I would appreciate any info you may want to pass along, either here or at my email address. Vicki.baker@aol.com. Thanks so much. |
I looked at a few places before coming to the Villages. Boring !! After we bought here, we did several what they call stay and play. Places gave you a place for the weekend and had a few planned activities. Checked out the activities. Wednesday at 12:00 water aerobics, Tues. at 2:00 line dancing, a small grill for lunch and 1 golf course. There is no where that you will find the activities that are here, the golf courses, clubs, entertainment, restaurants, shops, etc., etc. I guess it all depends on what you want to do with your life. If you are content with enjoying your home, cooking, etc., maybe the Villages aren't for you. Make a list of things you want to do and things you don't want to do. Go from there and I'm sure you'll find what type of place you are looking for. Good luck and whatever you choose, enjoy !!!
