The Villages has the highest % per-capita of ...
 
It's time for the truth about The Villages. While I have not done a scientific study, we do go to the squares on a pretty regular basis. And I am quite sure our claim to fame must be that we have the highest volume of people with knee braces per capita of any city in the world (not just the US).

It's time the truth came out. And I for one cannot wait for the day when I tell someone I live in The Villages and they say, "Really?! I hear they have the highest % of knee braces in the world!"

The braces are cosmetic, they hide the scars from knee replacements.

Rapscallion St Croix 07-14-2022 09:15 AM

TV also has the smallest number of baby showers and sales figures for purple shampoo are off the charts.

manaboutown 07-14-2022 09:24 AM

People who have had cataract surgeries, knee and hip replacements and AARP memberships.

Re: left handers
Interesting if true. I'm one. Always been so. Perhaps, why I know the rest of the world is crazy.

We could have a club for us left handers but no idea what we would do after the first meeting.

manaboutown 07-14-2022 01:41 PM

Well, I am ambidextrous. Some things I tend to do right handed, others left handed. I can and do write with either hand.

My husband is a leftie and a keen observer for other lefties. He thinks The Villages has a higher distribution of lefties.

Knee braces come with ACTIVE seniors' lifestyle. It's a badge of honour in my book!

ME VERY LONG 07-15-2022 05:55 AM

Very soon
 
Today we have the largest percentage of Vets other than military bases.
True.
In less than 15 years we’ll have the largest percentage of draft dodgers worldwide.
Yippy👍

Statistics
 
I read a study that found 38.6% of all statistics are made up (including this one).

RICH1 07-15-2022 06:48 AM

Don’t forget the highest number of Loofah sponges sold , more than Tarpon Springs…. Fact checked by a random guys cousins wife sitting next to me at Golden Corral on Saturday

LOL Think Pickle ball, Softball, etc. Some activities here just aren't intended for seniors. It's not if you're going to get hurt but when. It's tons of fun but had a price.

Rodneysblue 07-15-2022 07:23 AM

And custodians.
