Well I am gonna say that isn't the feeling I get at all.
Some people love to dress well, and some people love to dress casual but almost every single person I have met in The Villages smell nice and clean when I hug them.
AND there are now lots of designers that cost more than premiers and who CARES? All of our kitchens are part of our living rooms, just like a camper or a trailer....and there is NOTHING wrong with a TRAILER.
Another thing. What we used to do must have made us smart enough to choose here to live. There are quite a few people who could live in the vastly rich parts of Florida if they chose to, if they wanted to show off their money but they chose here. AND things and possessions are just things and possessions. None of us are pushing buttons to drop bombs or picking up red phones or making decisions that affect thousands or being followed by scouts for the film industry, or NFL MLB or NBA.
As I say and say again, this is as close to a classless city as any in the country, the only thing lacking is slums or mega mansions. We have neither.
We do have people who think their fannies weigh a ton, we have some from the OLYMPIC drinking team who get smarter as they imbibe, just ask them.
But most of the folks here are like the folks back home.
OH, another thing. Has anyone noticed how many older people live here????
omg the wrinkles.
