I am gonna give it look this winter. But you always have the bashers, would like honest opinions.

Thanks

I've now been here for two full years, and have concluded that there is no other place in the world that I would rather be at this time in my life. It's not perfect by any means. But I consider myself very lucky for finding this place in 2008, and if I were to win one of those big lotto jackpots, I would stay right here and do what I do every day. Priceless.

Help! Thinking of retiring in TV and have some questions

[redwitch]

If I had my choice, I'd still be living in the Bay Area. However, since that isn't an option, I found a great place to land. The positives far outweigh the negatives here.

While The Villages would not be for everyone, if you would enjoy an active retirement lifestyle then we don't think there is a better place to be...we love it!!!

Great post!!!

There aren't enough words to describe how beautiful it is to be in TV. It's a feeling you get just living here.

When I first saw TV seven years ago, I thought this can't be in the USA, because it's out of this world.

One visit will convince you this place is just great!!!

If one wants to be a traditional retiree in that you just read books all the time and hang out at home, one can live anywhere. If one wants to be active and enjoy thousands of various activities, this place is for you. You can do as much or little as you want, but being on the go, is the way to go, to keep oneself youthful. IMHO

Personally, we don't mind the heat (hate the PA winter cold!), but you may want to visit the Villages in each season.

I agree, Red, if I had my druthers, I think I would live back in SoCal, preferably the San Diego area. But that is not possible and I love my friends in the Villages but I really do miss CA and the Pacific. I guess it all depends on where you came from.

We moved here from Upstate New York 2 years ago. Enough said.

The endless variety of people and their backgrounds in every kind of career from every corner of the nation (and other nations) are what make this a totally unique, INTERESTING and lively population. Age means nothing here.

[Bonnevie]

I tell people that I never had a burning desire to live in central Florida, but what this place offers is unlike any other. The people here want to live in their retirement, not just exist. I've done more activities in the less than a year I've been here than I did in 10 years before.

[NotGolfer]

We don't "like" it.....we LOVE it here! Moved from the northern tundra...do NOT miss the cold and snow!

[Walter123]

Yes

[raynan]

Absolutely love it and wish we did it sooner. We've been here 4 years. I agree with sunnyatlast. Age is just a state of mind. If you're active you'll love it. If you're not, you'll love it. Something for everyone.
