Probably the first thing you noticed was real estate at 1/3 or less of the value than in "the land of fruits and nuts".

If this disappoints you, and is that important to you, why did you buy in The Villages? Obviously nobody else cared, including the other ethnicity groups that did buy.

When you asked them why they are not buying in The Villages, how did they respond? Would that not be more informative than asking this forum why they don't buy? Possibly they wish to be far from you??

I don't believe you agree...there is already some diversity, evidently it is not enough for your liking. They have been playing music from the 80's and 90's and some more current music for quite awhile now, I recently watched line dancing to "Talk Dirty" (these Villagers can line dance to anything!!)
One Love?? Bob Marley's best song is NO WOMAN NO CRY!
