Someone is keeping track of the 80% numbers. It came up at the POA meeting last night (9/16/2014). I forget the exact percentage that was reported but I believe it was around 96%.

As far as I know, there are only two age restrictions to living in TV: No one under 19 can live here at all and 80% of the homes have to have one person over 55 living in them. Other than that, residents can be any age from 19 to infinity.

That is how I understand it. But getting back to the scenario in the OP, it was stated that if a property is sold because of a legal matter such as a bank repo the rules of the community do not apply. Is that true of The Villages? Could someone have children under the age of 19 living here legally?

The other question that I have is; if we are right at the 20% maximum and the spouse of an under 55 resident dies, would the under 55 spouse be able to stay?

80% of of at least one resident? Is that by weight, volume or body parts? If my legs are under 55 years old but the rest of me is 60 plus would I be OK to live here?
