VILLAGES.

Hate to rain on your "cute" parade but TV has been growing, it was cute 15 years ago.
With over 75K resident and growing it must evolve and take on the characteristics and infrastructure of a city.

That site is wrong.

The current population of The Villages is about 130,000, as recently published in the Daily Sun. And the population has been increasing yearly at a rate of around 5,000.

It's deeper than boots, hip waders are what you need and pretty soon a wet suit and a snorkel.

What federal guidelines?

Do you really think a business owner sets down one day and decides he needs to change a money making enterprise just to make a change? Apparently the original concept wasn't generating enough revenue so a change was made hoping it would work. Obviously it didn't, that is why it closed.

Agree. Twelve years ago our sales agent claimed there were about 70,000. 12 x 5,000 = 60,000 more now, so 130,000 sounds right.

You do realize that The Villages has offices and employees on the second floor above Soma, Tervis, etc. They also have employees on one of the upper floors in the same building as MVP.
So no... the 2nd floor isn't just built for show....

Your confusing. Offices and old Katie's what are you referring to. If Katie's it looks like a long range plan. Clos down stairs. Move it up stairs. Clos and sell apts.e Katie's

When we moved here over 3 years ago the population was 125,000 all north of 44 there are now a lot more than 5,000 people living south of 44.

Could be correct. Maybe setting up in case a new president gets in and they follow the proposed new HUD Guidelines in their platform. No federal funding for roads etc if a certain percentage of housing isn’t for lower incomes. Interesting thought.

The Villages does not stand alone nor does it have government. It is part of Wildwood, Lady Lake, Fruitland Park and soon to be Leesburg and I'm sure they already have the housing and/or planned housing in place.

I am doubting this is the case. What federal law are you using as a basis for this conclusion?
