I have seen several references to The Villages being about 32 square miles.

I would think it is much larger. First, there is all the "prehistoric" side across the golf cart bridge. Measure the mileage from Hwy 42 at the Marion County Sheriff station all the way down Buena Vista to 466A, cross 466A and go down to 40. Morse starts on 441/27 and goes all the way South to 40. East to West, it goes from the Lady Lake edge and Near Fruitland Park all the way into Wildwood town limits.

I know the edges are far from even for simple measurement - but the area is still length times width.
