Re: Don't let some of the threads keep you from moving to the Villages!
VHA is no doubt developer controlled. Most of the "representatives" are employed in one capacity or another by the developer. They may be a sales representative or a gate guard or a recreation specialist but they are loyal to the developer and family.
POA while seen as negative many times, owes nothing to the developer and consists of volunteers from Village residents.
I belong to both just to keep up with what each is saying or doing and to be sure I have all the honest scoop.
You can't regularly attend VHA meetings unless you join. We joined when we first moved here and not knowing any better, paid $60 for a lifetime membership. This is why I suggest that any potential resident check everything out and TALK to other residents.
