Default Re: An Alternate To Living At The Villages

You can access the Villages by golf cart from Stonecrest. Stonecrest is next to Wal-Mart on 441 and there is a path from the Wal-Mart to Orange Blossom Hills.

Also, Stonecrest isn't 2 miles from TV. Some homes in Stonecrest are adjacent to some homes in TV. Look at the homes on a map satellite view of the Lake Cty/Marion Cty line East of the Wal-mart on 441. From the main entrance to Stonecrest on 441 to the Morse Blvd entrance to TV on 441 (by car) is about 3/4 Miles.

The reason the residents of Stonecrest, Spruce Creek, Spruce Creek South and other nearby developments and older towns use the TV shopping facilities, squares, golf courses, movies, restaurants, etc., is because the facilities have been made public facilities by the TV developer (they could have easily been gated for TV residents only) who is looking for the sales from as many people as possible. The residents of TV should be encouraging more non-resident people to use the public facilities (like the family is) and spend more money in TV and thereby lowering the cost of living in TV.
