I'm not sure what you mean by "way too many teens hanging around". If you live in TV, then you know the Town Squares are open to the public. Teenagers visiting in TV, as well as those from surroundings areas, are welcome to attend movies, eat at the restaurants, etc. The Villages is NOT a gated community.

Sure takes all kinds of people to make the world go round. How do you stand on dog poop?

Age
 
You moved to TV which is 55 and over. However you didn't do your homework. 20% can be under 55 by FEDERAL law. Anybody over 19 can live here either with family or by renting that is written in your deed restrictions. No child under 19 can reside more then 30 days { I know it has happened so don't waste your time correcting me }. That's the rules. If your looking for a true your to young you can't live here community you picked the WRONG one. As for me I could care less. Old or young we all break the law, we can all get in accidents etc. If you can't deal with it it's your own fault for not knowing before you moved here. As i said I love it,don't intend to leave until the good lord takes me. Life is to short to worry about such stupid crap.JMO

Yep :) I just posted on another thread...I'm 37 and here to stay with my mother and help her and look after her till my dad retires in a year. He's going to be in another state. So nope not all of us are here for bad reasons, just caring for her and making her feel safe. I actually enjoy the quiet environment where we live. The neighbors back in NC were driving all of us insane! Like to find some activities we can both do so I can get her out and into the community activites. She tends to be a homebody.

Our friends are coming to stay at our home while they interview for jobs at two of the hospitals They are CRNAs not planning on children and are in their 30s. Like they said where else can they live and use a golf cart to drive to work.

Two 30 year olds will have a hard time buying a house with deed restrictions saying one resident has to be age 55.

I thought there was a minimum age requirement of 55, even for the children of residents.

What 20 something in there right mind would want to hang around a bunch of old duffers ...

Back to the original post....I saw the obit for the young man who died in the accident. It stated his mom lived in T.V. so I surmised he could have been living with her. He worked at a local restaurant.

As for teens hanging on the squares....I haven't observed that however as someone else said they could live in the surrounding area "villages". So where would you have them go? The area is where they live and the squares are for everyone. I know folks who winter in Tavares and Leesburg who come over to the squares for the entertainment so it definately draws others from a broader area than just T.V. and Dell Webb communities.

Many of these "undesirables" (I am referring to a previous post) are also students to all the local schools, including the charter school. Like has been mentioned, these are public places, wait until the southern most square opens up.
On another note, my wife and I just moved into The Villages this past weekend for a 15 month "test drive." She is 43 and I am 47. Hope you don't mind......

What classifies them as undesirables?

Did you run a police background check on them, did they say something nasty, did they try and rob you or was it the way they dressed, what brought you to that conclusion?

that may depend on your answer to the above question, so far I must say I don't like your classification of others.

I think he was quoting others.

jbdlfan 05-03-2012 12:37 PM

No, I don't find them undesirable at all. I apologize, I was actually refering to earlier posters and from other threads that mention these kids. I know quite a few of them and understand why they are there. Trust me, I see most of these kids on a daily basis!

jimbo2012 05-03-2012 01:45 PM

ok, sorry my error
