Flamingo - I grew up in Pickaway County - Williamsport and of course made many trips to Circleville. After college we lived in Upper Arlington. Welcome to paradise.

Default VERY new to this forum

We've just moved to Florida full-time from northeast Ohio (Wooster) and are looking to see where we want to settle. We originally wanted south Florida for the tropical climate, but we have recently spoken with someone who intends to move to TV in the next few months and absolutely love it.

The amount of activities interests me, but my wife thinks it's too far north and will be too cold in the winter months. She's reluctant to consider it because of that. I'd like to hear from people who have dealt with this and hear how it was resolved.

Leeddog, once you are here most of the year or year-round, the cooler winter months in Dec. thru Feb. are a treat after the hottest months of July, August, September. The sun shines almost every day and that makes up for any "cold" days when it is 60 degrees out in the winter. You can go to accuweather.com and other weather sites to look up the historical high and low temperatures for various cities in FL or other states. At this link, you can choose the month and year (past) to see actual temps in previous years. In January, 2011, many days had high temps of high 70's and sometimes 80 degrees:

We've met people many times who retired in more southern and coastal areas of FL have moved here because of the endless amenities, little crime, decent cost of living, and hundreds more clubs/activities than one person can schedule into their day/week/month.

We are also from the Akron area (Fairlawn). We just built a home in Tamarind Grove . Is this close to you? Glad to hear of people from our area moving down here. Hope to meet up with you in the future.

Thanks for that link ilovetv. Very helpful. Another question we have is how many snowbirds there are in TV and what is the year-round population?

We have been in the Villages for a while and just love it. We lived in Brunswick and or son graduated from Akron, and lives in Canton. My wife goes up there 4 times a year too much for me, I go two times. I am the VP of the Browns club so when you get a chance come over and enjoy a game we are there every Sunday during their games, we have over 200 people and we have over 130 every Sunday, we all have a great time winning or losing.
