I can enjoy thin and crispy flatbread pizzas, but I didn’t think the one at Red Sauce was very good. But I’ll try again. Maybe it’s usually better.

My favorite is Ledo's Pizza. Opened in College Park, MD (now they have it in VA, N&S Carolina and Fl). It was hands down the best pizza anywhere! The closest one is north Tampa. I'm going to have a pizza there and bring another one home for the freezer.

In your opinion, which restaurant has the best thin crust pizza in The Villages?

OP, your tagline says Connecticut. So I'll express this to you as someone who knows northern pizza and who has a preference for NY/New Haven/Boston style pizza:

Avoid Flippers at all costs. It's worse than Domino's (using the above as the benchmark).

I've heard from a few northern neighbors that Paisano's is decent.
I'll add Giovanni's at Wedgewood in the same plaza as the Publix (a couple of doors down).

You won't find anything truly comparable to NYC/New Haven/Boston pizza anywhere in Florida, and most sauce here comes from a can, not from the restaurant's kitchen. They use Florida tap water to make the dough, and that's sort of like adding a forkful of half-chewed well-done filet mignon to a bowl of Kibbles and Bits and calling it gourmet dog food.
