Default If Not The Villages, where?

Are there any other communities you could suggest we look in to? What/Where would be your second choice if you could not afford to buy a home in The Villages?

We are trying to keep our options open at this point.

I would love to hear your suggestions.

Thanks.
We've been to the Tucson Arizona three times and The Villages, renting four years for a few months and have owned for three. We had decided that TV is the only place for us. While renting, my wife and I would do a three mile walk from Caroline in and around Sumter Landing and back and as I would tell my wife, 'Why would I ever want to leave the reservation?' That said, there is always, always a deal in The Villages. You just have to have patience and search the properties if this is where you want to live. While we are fortunate enough to be snow-birds. I can see us upgrading to designer and becoming frogs in a couple of years....but that's just us. Keep your eyes open and good luck to you.
