Now math is not a strong suit for most people, so here it is. Since I bought in Hillsborough in 2014, I would say conservatively half the residents are original. This would mean that the half that moved would ALL have to move elsewhere in TV and ALL have to move 6 times to average 3. The idea is rediculous on its face. Now some do move 3 times, some more, but it is not the norm.

To be honest, I think you have been around the villages enough times to know where everything is, and where you want to buy. Just be thoughtful, and don't over downsize and you will be fine.

Thanks Ed. Looking forward to continuing the search in May. Looking like December will be the retirement month...Thanks for the educated comments.

We bought our home in TV 3 years ago, and honestly, some days I barely move at all.

Wait...did I miss the point?

The definitive answer. :D

I have lived in TV almost 14 years. I am on my third home. First move after 4 years was because hubby wanted a pool in our yard. Second move was back to original neighborhood after hubby passed away and I didn’t want upkeep of the pool so now I’m on #3. Next move is to ALF sometime many years in the future OR Florida National Cemetery.
