Bring all your blow molded / illuminated Santas and Rudolphs.
The neighbors will love you. TV rule number one, if you have a question about it up north. Get rid of it. Christmas is low key here. Some do stuff most do not do much. |
Another post brought up the big note.
Storage. Biggest issue people have is lack of storage. I turn it around, no excess storage, no accumulation of unnecessary stuff. Many homes here..... we do no use the attic. Way too hot up there in most cases. Also who wants to hump everything up and down every year. your call |
yes, storage is a HUGE issue. I get that!

You will see it all. A simple wreath to Santa and his sleigh driving to a creche scene.
Personally I enjoy Christmas lights and decorations. I hope you bring yours, |
Christmas

Most comments are on target. Huge plastic tubs stacked in garage corner with a nice curtain around them are not noticed and store all inside decorations. Love the cheerful atmosphere, especially this year.

Bring everything you normally use, many of us still love to decorate inside and outside, in our village we do a golf cart drive through every block to see all the lights thanks to our village president who organized it and had it mapped out, lots of us have grandkids visiting and they love to see all the lights

I am in the process of purging so many things knowing that I’m not going to have as much storage, when we move there in November, as we do here up north. I just came upon the tubs of lights. Over the years, I’ve accumulate a lot of sets of lights. I decided to pack the LED ones and get rid of the rest. I’m looking forward to driving around on the golf cart looking at everyone’s displays.

Congratulations on your move. We always decorate our yard and house. So do most of our neighbors. There are also companies like Len Hart Electric that will come put lights up, take them down and store them for you. If you choose this option they charge based on your house size and the type of lot if you want them around the yard. To wrap palms they charged me by the strand but they were very long strands. They provide the lights and the lights once you have the service is done yearly with them bringing your lights back. They offer white light strands or multi colored light strands. We have a boxwood model with a high peak so to me it is worth it not to have to get on a ladder. The lights are supposed to be taken down by New Year. They always get here the week after X-Mas so we have never been late getting our lights down.

If you are really wondering whether people in The Villages put out Christmas lights, take a look at these 3 YouTube videos of Christmas light displays in The Villages. Either that, or just google "Christmas light displays The Villages FL". Unfortunately the Dunkirk display isn't as big as it once was because of theft and traffic problems.
