If the demographics were there, e.g., high end expense accounts and big spenders, The Villages might have some high end restaurants. |
A $53,000 median household income means that half of the households make more than $53,000 and half make less (the median is the middle value in a list of numbers). There would need to be some pretty substantial numbers in the top half for enough demand for a high end restaurant. Because basically there is no market nearby. No tourist dollars, no conventioneers, no big dollar communities. I sure would like a couple though, chain or boutique.
