I had not heard of it until the spring of 2010. They don't advertise in No. Fla. I was driving home from school and I heard a story on NPR about this central florida community that escaped the recession. I googled it when I got home and showed it to my wife. We came down on a Saturday out of curiosity and fell in love with it. We have made five other trips (three lifestyles). We close on a home in Dunedin on Monday (I retired 10/01 and my wife in June).
