Yep. The Villages will be a new “Land” in Disney. “The VillagesLand”. Ride your own golf cart while dodging old people. Learn how to line dance with elders. See how many early bird restaurants you can visit.

Somehow, I don't see too many trees. We in the US complain about the Amazon Rain Forest getting cut down, but it appears that we would do the same thing.

It was pasture landheld future McDonalds hamburgers. Which is not always good for the ecology. There was some nasty materials left behind that needed to be mitigated and cleaned up. The viable trees that were there were retained and will be maintained. Many more trees are added during the "Florida friendly" landscaping phase. There many new lakes, and they are generally larger than before. Similar to the chain of lakes in Linden/Monarch Grove. One lake just south of Central Parkway is close to a mile long. And there's no question the diversity and population of the landscape and wildlife improves with all the lakes and added landscaping. |

Never as long as the CDD form of government stays in place. Serves the area very well as structured.

So sorry you feel that way, I play golf at every exec since 2010 and have found 99% of everyone is friendly, enjoyable and curious as to “you drive how long to get here”?
But that 1% of those who complain that TV is too big, or not friendly, rarely leaves their home base by more than 5 miles. Yet is very unhappy about the new neighborhoods. To give an example two guys at Hilltop were rattling on about how ridiculous all of these new areas and it needs to stop. It’s infringing on our lifestyles by having so many people. I asked when they traveled to LSL was it just too many people? Answer “Never been there” So did you find the people at Brownwood not friendly? Answer “Where’s that” The few who have traveled to Brownwood even from SS area, many thought it was just to far of a drive. In all the years I have asked why are you so unhappy about the new build, only a few have traveled below 466. I remember after renting in LSL for years we bought our first house in Pennacamp. We were so excited, and yet everyone who asked where we bought thought we had just thrown our money away. “You are never going to sell that house it’s in left field, not close to anywhere, that neighborhood will have empty houses for years. You got swindled” Well that didn’t happen. So I ask from those who no longer think this is a community of people is friendly, do you find the younger residents are not respectful of your age, and that’s why it’s not friendly Last edited by thelegges; 04-30-2024 at 06:19 AM. |

Actually, almost everyone I run into in other parts of The Villages are also content and positive people, who are grateful and feel blessed to live here. The “curmudgeon” crowd seems to exist primarily online, and I rarely run into these types when out and about enjoying our wonderful community.

‘Curmudgeon’....nothing like showing your demo without saying it. Again, not everybody agrees with your opinions and commentary. It’s fine. I like seeing things through other people’s opinions....may not change mine but it’s more interesting and engaging than going to dinner between 3 to 4pm! |

All but one were shiny brand new, with brand new residents and those who come from northern areas. The only neighborhood that wasn’t so friendly was a preowned that the owner passed away. Anything we changed from a single bush to the shades in our lanai was frowned upon. You live in S————house, she made this house perfect, you are changing everything she worked so hard to make it a showplace. Yep that was fun, and wonder if that is common in neighborhoods that are original residents pass and new person moves in. How long have you been here New or preowned. Ever encounter not happy the house sold issues |

It's rare for the developer to actually cut down mature oaks. There are many in the area. We're in Marsh Bend, and the live oaks with the Spanish Moss was what really got us to take notice and settle here after searching homes between 466 and 466A. Come on down in your cart or car to see the expanse of development. That view from the bridge does not tell the full story.
