pros and cons of buying north or south of 466
 

North of 466 Pros:

Closer to big box stores
Closer to bowling alleys
more trees (this could be a con also, Ha!)
Bond either doesn't exist (Lake Co.) or is already paid off!
and last but not least, you would live closer to ME!...giggle..

just read this forum and you will find most of the complaints and concerns are from the south.

Bingo. I'll also add another one. I kept reading in the dog poop threads about people's lawns being irrigated with stinky water (non potable, reclaimed...). North of CR 466, homes are irrigated with potable water. And my water bill is very inexpensive.

I live on the Island in the middle of 466 just in front of Gary's house. They send me out their leftovers after dinner.

You are so cute
 

Who needs Gary's leftovers when you are the best cook on the planet!

Much, much , much less traffic.
Better golf courses.

We are becoming the 'youngest' of all the villages neighborhoods! By virtue of the fact that many of our neighbors are as 'historic' as the neighborhoods are, we grow younger as many of those residents leave us for the true paradise.

South
 

Live South of 466A - no complaints here. Love the drive to get to the big box stores - it's just beautiful through the hugh oak trees on Buena Vista. I don't think it matters where you live in the Villages. What counts most is that you can and do live in the Villages. It's all good here !:MOJE_whot:

They tell me Florida is Gods waiting room.

Don't believe everything ya hear! ;)

isn't this how the civil war started?:jester:

I like it all over. It feels good all over. It looks good all over. It is a beautiful blend of residents a bit old, kinda old, and older, and they are all very beautiful to me. I like that fact that they are smarter than the rest of the world because they have handled more "stuff" than the tadpoles.

I like the historic side with it's big trees and big lots and sweet small town feel. I like the near north and the far north and the mid section. The landscaping has grown to the point that it gives privacy from the folks nearby. I like the near south and the far south even those sweet folks who are still a little wet behind the ears and are not too familiar yet with the fact that nobody dresses up here. They will settle in soon.

This my friends and companions, THIS whole place is lower Paradise.

P Turner said it was and we think she is always right.

St. James = Best of both worlds. Halfway between LSL and Brownwood and can easily zip to stores in Spanish Springs area. Life is good! :)

Sorry Dawg, best of both worlds = halfway between LSL and Spanish Springs. Don't have to even think about zipping down to Brownwood until something good actually opens.
