When you travel south on Rt 471 towards Webster there are several signs that say stop The Villages 9600 acres development keep Sumter rural. Anyone know what this is about ?

It's my understanding the Villages owns property way down Hwy 471. How much truth... I dunno !!!

I too saw the signs. When the county decided to reroute 301, so that it won't go into Coleman, is when the signs went up. I think it's because they thought they would be selling their land for big dollars.

That also hurt any businesses that rely on drive through traffic in the Coleman area

At last Census, Coleman had about 600 people. (Not counting the umm visitors in adjacent facilities)

Coleman, Florida - Wikipedia

I think a bakery there that encloses surprise gifts in cakes might make it.
