I haven't lived here very long. We only rented a little while before we bought. I interviewed residents and researched what I could. I met one guy early on who said "I tried for two solid years to find the skeletons in the closet, if you know what I mean, before I gave up looking."

I was skeptical.

I suppose it’s because we have gone to many timeshare presentations in return for promotions. We know when someone tries to sell you a lifestyle you better be sure you can afford it. You need very little money for entertainment down here if you like joining clubs, playing executive golf courses and using the recreation facilities.

If you are social, you will never run out of friends down here either.

Of course every now and then you will run into someone who is bored and unfriendly.
