I am 46 and bought my house in the historical area. I haven't had any problems making friends here. Most are a bit older than me (50's-60's) but that's fine, they are pretty cool people and I do work with a bunch of people who are younger than myself. It did take me longer than I wanted to find work but that's probably because I wanted to work in The Villages. The pay down here is very different from back home and I didn't want to travel to far for little pay.
They do get some really good entertainment here both in the squares and the Savannah Center. In the year I have been here have probably seen 30+ shows just at The Savannah Center (they get really good tribute bands) We just saw a Billy Joel tribute this past Sunday & last month an Eagles tribute band, both awesome! Next week we are seeing Neil Diamond & Bee Gees tribute bands. Most places may close up earlier here than anyplace else, but I am never bored.
