Average age for a villager

[marvinh11791]

Hello. I have been enjoying this forum for a number of years and I also came down for a Lifestyle Visit about 4 years ago. I am also amazed at the recent villages expansion. Wow!
But the years have passed and I am now going on 76 years old.
So what is the average age for a new villager to buy a home and come down now?
Thanks! MarvinH

[La lamy]

My google search said the average age of the TV population is 71.

[manaboutown]

New residents? Who knows.

"The average household income in The Villages is $79,973 with a poverty rate of 4.63%. The median rental costs in recent years comes to $1,683 per month, and the median house value is $280,300. The median age in The Villages is 71.7 years, 72.6 years for males, and 71 years for females."

The growth rate of TV is incredibly impressive! ( in the last month alone :1rotfl: )
I am 47 but not retired. I moved here in 2014 to be a caregiver. I love the diversity here and getting to know people from all over the U.S. and the world makes life here so very interesting.
I hope you are having a wonderful time✌

63 and single...... and i can drive at night!

Based on your question "average age for a new villager to buy a home" my guess would have to be based on where in The Villages you were referring. I'm going to speculate that many of the newly retired people are in their early 60's, and I would bet that many of them are buying new homes which are in the new areas south of 44. That was probably true say 10 years ago when the area around Lake Sumter Landing and down to Brownwood was new. So now, I would expect that area to have many in their 70's. And by extension, I would expect a lot more of those north of 466 are in their late 70's and 80's,. I know that in all areas there are a mix of ages due to resales, but I suspect that this logic would explain the average age being 71.5. But this is all a guess.

[BigSteph]

My parents moved into the Villages as new owners at 80 and 73.

We also moved into the Villages recently at 54 and 52 -- we are not retired, but figured we would enter the 'bubble' early. At 54, the Villages gladly took my money.

My parents wished they got here much earlier, but such is life.

They are Frogs... they say they plan to 'croak' here.

My wife and I don't know. Maybe we will retire here, but maybe we will live in the Villages until retirement and end up somewhere else. For now we are enjoying the fact that friends and family back in our home state experienced frost last night, and all we had was a slight chill in the air.

Retired and moved here when I was 57.

I agree with your speculation, but as you mentioned, there are exceptions which I am part of (and quite a few people I know). I retired here at 55 and I bought in the north end of TV.

Your post makes a lot of sense.

We first came here about seven years ago now on a lifestyle visit and have had some rental experiences before buying our current home (Alhambra) a little over a year ago now. Older village = older villagers seems to be the rule (with of course some exceptions). Many of our neighbors have been here for 10-15 years, a couple even approaching 20. You wouldn't see that in the newer developments.

[cdzizzy]

I’m 58 and hubby is 63 — we are both retired and remodeled a 25-year-old home from a single owner in February. We are snowbirds from Colorado. Our next door neighbors are our age and inherited the home from parents (also the only owners of that home). Neighbors across the street range from late 60’s to late 80’s. Not sure when we may full-time it, but probably in the next 10 years. We love it here and we live the character (and characters) on the north end along with our location between Spanish and Sumter. We joined south of 60’s club and we do go down south to rec centers and to brownwood by both car or cart — that’s just fine too. Don’t wait any longer — this is a wonderful place!

[JMintzer]

I'm 63 (64 on Thanksgiving), SWMBO just turned 63 last month.

We settled in February and have been down to the house 5 times this year (coming again next month...) Still active snowflakes, but working on my retirement and my exit strategy, so we can become Frogs...

[OrangeBlossomBaby]

Moved to the old section 2 years ago, I was 58, spouse 60. We would not have entertained moving to the new section even if we could've afforded it (which we couldn't).

[JGVillages]

You did that just to beat up on us 70's Pickleball players. Bring it on. Hope to see you at SB this year. :a040::a040::a040:

[bjp1673]

We have made Florida our primary residence, but will be traveling back north. Planning on 7 months here and 5 up north, broken up over the year. Not looking forward to all the driving back and forth, but thinking we will need our car up north.

[ChicagoNative]

I quit the corporate rat race at 53, my S.O. was already done and was 56 at the time. We snowbirded between St. Pete and Chicago until last year when we decided to become full time Florida residents. The SO turns 68 next week and I turn 65 in two months.

Hurricane fatigue and family recommendations led us to look here in 2017. We did the lifestyle tour and loved the whole idea of TV, but we wanted new construction and the only option for that was Fenny. The sales people were really pushing Fenny, and while the new neighborhood was beautiful, it felt isolated to us and we were not interested. It still feels isolated even with all the construction that never seems to stop. In 2018 we ended up closing an a beautiful new construction home in a great neighborhood where we share a border with Bridgeport at Miona on one side, and Lynnhaven/Ashland across the street. We are very happy with our new community and feel more a part of the Villages than those southern areas, even though we are constantly reminded that we are not true villagers. Oh well.

We don’t golf and don’t care about “3000 clubs”, so we feel like we hit the jackpot with our community. We also like that there’s a mix of ages here. We were really set to live in the Villages, but found our new place almost by accident, and have no regrets. Your mileage may vary.

I thought the same thing, but actual first hand experience has proven otherwise. We bought in our 50’s over 6 years ago north of 466 between LSL and SS. When we bought we were the youngsters in a relatively old demographic neighborhood. Over 6 short years, the turnover in our neighborhood has been rapid. We are now in our 60’s and are surrounded by neighbors mostly in their 50’s and 60’s. What was an older neighborhood a few years ago is rapidly becoming young by villages standards. In a few more short years both the north and southern most areas will be the young areas, and the middle areas will be older. Then the cycle will change again. With the age demographic in the Villages, rapid housing turnover is a constant.

[mkjelenbaas]

My google search said the average age of the TV population is 71.

A couple of years ago it was reported the average age in the Villages was 66.4 - having said that -- the real way to look at AGE is: the newer the Village (generally speaking) the younger the people living there - very simple - most people coming down look and buy in the newer sections and tend to be younger when moving here. EX: the Historic side of TV is the original section and tends to have people that have been here for year - I know there are exceptions to that - but that is the general consensus.

[DAVES]

Reality-I find that with each passing year I am a year older.
Perhaps worse surprise for many you are actually a year older than what we say.
Your first birthday is at the completion of your first year not the start of it.

Ponce de Leon looked for the fountain of youth in Florida. The villages? Ponce de Leon was too young to get in.

So much has changed since we were born. Not all of it good. Not all of it bad. Who is that old guy in the mirror? The guy that said he would never go to Florida.

Using registered voters age is a misleading statistic in the Villages. Think about it, roughly half the population are snowflakes and snowbirds who tend to be on the younger side of the average age in a retirement community. Many of those Villages homeowners have another home in a state where they are registered to vote.

[Cherstubbs]

Truly believe that age is just a number! You’ll love the community … something for everyone!

[kansasr]

There are over 98,000 registered voters in The Villages...I"d say it's fairly representative

[fdpaq0580]

Age is not just a number. It is a statistical indicator of life experience and, possibly, knowledge and wisdom. Also, like the best if used before dates on perishables, an indicator of possible degradation of performance of certain functions. So, better join in the fun ASAP. Don't be one of those who waited too long before deciding to get involved and enjoy life to the fullest. And, like Cherstubbs said, you'll love the community. There is something for everyone.

Very interesting thought in first paragraph. Try this thought. Born on July 8, 1946. Service took me around the world, always traveling west. What day should I celebrate my birthday?

Hello. I have been enjoying this forum for a number of years and I also came down for a Lifestyle Visit about 4 years ago. I am also amazed at the recent villages expansion. Wow!
But the years have passed and I am now going on 76 years old.
So what is the average age for a new villager to buy a home and come down now?
Thanks! MarvinH

Better come now while you're still young.
You should have bought 4 years ago during your lifestyle visit.

My parents are 78. I wish they would have at least spent some time in TV 3 to 5 years ago. They are in the northeast, and the winters are brutal for them - not so much the cold, but the isolation due to the weather.
For no other reason, do it so your mind stays young.

Just a tad more than "half", don't you think? :)

[SIRE1]

Based on your question "average age for a new villager to buy a home" my guess would have to be based on where in The Villages you were referring. I'm going to speculate that many of the newly retired people are in their early 60's, and I would bet that many of them are buying new homes which are in the new areas south of 44. That was probably true say 10 years ago when the area around Lake Sumter Landing and down to Brownwood was new. So now, I would expect that area to have many in their 70's. And by extension, I would expect a lot more of those north of 466 are in their late 70's and 80's,. I know that in all areas there are a mix of ages due to resales, but I suspect that this logic would explain the average age being 71.5. But this is all a guess.

What I forgot to include in my speculation, and others have pointed out, is that as those owners in the older sections have aged their houses are becoming available as resales due to original owners passing away or going into senior housing. So I agree, as I've seen in my neighborhood north of 466, the older neighborhoods are definitely getting a second growth of residents. On our street, we were one of the first of the second owners, and now quite a few of the homes have been resold and the new buyers are recently retired.

We just moved here a few weeks ago.
Never thought we would move from our beautiful home in Pine Ridge Beverly Hills, but it was too comfortable there and all we did was go in the pool, have cocktails, dinner, and TV. So we moved here for the opportunity to do more things and meet people. So far we haven’t had time to do anything except unpacking and setting up the new house in Citrus Grove.
But we will be out there soon.

[sales1202]

My wife and I are closing on our home in 11 days, Village of Amelia. We started with a lifestyle visit several years ago and returned two more times to make sure this was where we wanted to live in retirement. A career change necessitated a relocation to the southeast, so our plans were moved up by a few years. I will be continuing to work while my wife takes golf lessons and enjoys her retirement. I am turning 60 and my wife is 64.

EX: the Historic side of TV is the original section and tends to have people that have been here for year - I know there are exceptions to that - but that is the general consensus.

The people who started out in the Villages in the "historic" section are long gone. Remember it was a 55+ community in the 1970's. This is the 2020's, so people who were 55 and moving in, would be well over 100 now. THOSE homes became occupied 20 or 30 years after they moved in, by younger folks. And THOSE folks would have been living here for 20-30 years now. Many of THOSE folks have upgraded, passed on, or gone to rest homes, while many still live here.

But the homes that were occupied by that middle generation that no longer live there, are now occupied by mostly younger folks - with younger being that 50-65 year old crowd. A scattering of older people, but many younger folks. I'm not even the baby of the neighborhood anymore, there are a couple of people who've moved in who are under 60 now. And that's just in the last 2 years.

[charlieo1126@gmail.com]

I started out at the northern tip of villages at 60 in Springdale as one of youngest , moved as the villages moved until I landed in Fenny at 80 and one of the oldest and now back in the middle at almost 83 , probably still on the oldest category , it’s been a fun ride and probably have a seventh house in my future before I’m through

[Simplyasking]

Would you mind elaborating on that? As someone who is researching moving there I’d like your insight. Thank you!

[fdpaq0580]

Some folks move here and want every thing new. They spend the max of their budget on the new home. Others sell the big home then, with all the proceeds, find they prefer to find an older, more established area where the properties may be significantly less with lots of upgrades already in, or just waiting for you to make to your taste. These folks often have more, significantly more, to spend on their lifestyle activities.
Different strokes for different folks.
Hope this makes sense.

[charlieo1126@gmail.com]

Who says people are spending there max on new homes I think that is far from what people do when buying at an older age , go Patriots

"Some folks"...

Stop making me defend OBB!


I've found (in my short time in TV) that there is a very wide distribution of housing prices and retirement/disposable income. There is no "one size fit's all"...

[charlieo1126@gmail.com]

I don’t think hardly anybody is maxing out there income whether 55 or 85, if they are they should sign up for financial help classes , Pats win 24/6 I can go out , ride my bike and watch delayed packers / chiefs and tonight titans / Rams I love football

Well, it is their income. They're able to spend what is there I suppose.
