Re: An Alternate To Living At The Villages
 

Funny girl-- so happy that you like TV. However, please don't put down the other communities. There are other 55+ communities that are even more beautiful than TV. We have been all over Florida and there is much to offer for all different types of people. TV does lead in the active living participation type of lifestyle, I believe. Not everyone is attuned to this much activity and TV is busy; others may like a more laid-back lifestyle which is harder to find here. I have a friend on the water who would live nowhere else; he seems to need that solitude. So be it. ..... nothing wrong with either......just a different choice and isn't it nice to have choices...........

Re: An Alternate To Living At The Villages
 

We have friends who live in Stonecrest, & the wife has repeatedly said that they don't have the advantages of volunteer-conducted clubs & classes, nor do they have a library, as we do in The Villages. If they really want to enjoy those activities, they must drive a distance and/or pay for them (I've belonged to health clubs, & it's not cheap). Of course, our Wellness Center is superb, but we don't have to buy a membership. I've enjoyed their monthly excercise classes, which are reasonable in cost. Stonecrest doesn't appeal to me at all. It seems cold & lifeless.
