I really like this restriction... if you wonder why, just drive through some of the older sections where this is NOT a restriction... You could be living next door to Pee-Wee Herman!!!
I don't believe this has anything to do with the "Virgin Mary" or any religious innuendo... It's a restriction for The Villages and I am very happy with it... Even when they told me I had to remove my very nice Wooden Lighthouse from my front flower bed...

But that's why you bought where you bought and the folks in the old section bought where they did. Is it really necessary to refer negatively to the older section? They like it the way it is.....and you like it another way...(doesn't make there way wrong)....just drive around your neighborhood and look for violations, report them and all will be good......
