No. Been there for years.

Find something real to complain about. It’s a non issue, either subject! Plus who are you to poke fun at the place that another person decides to live? The people with the petition should try a slip and fall at a retail giant to score a couple of bucks. Maybe just maybe if these buyers had a local lawyer they may have tipped them off to the evil turnpike noise. Ooooooh!

My husband actually has a complaint about The Villages (he drank the kool-aid 10 years before we started looking for a house here). He complains that he misses the sound of the train.

Up north we didn't live next to the tracks but we could hear the trains in the distance, around 1/4 mile away. It was one of those "comforting" sounds.

I live in buttonwood and can hear train whistles from the tracks in Wildwood day and night as well as car traffic from Buena Vista and 466A.

The turnpike was there long before the homes in the south end. It’s like buying a house near a railroad track and expecting them to cater to you because you realize that trains make noise.

That could happen on any street, road or highway where there is traffic. One could choke eating puréed soup and die also but the odds are slim. The only answer in your eyes is to have a 500’ driveway. Have you heard that planes have crashed into homes in the middle of nowhere? What do we do about that, build cement bunkers underground for our homes?

Tell that to the family of the 8 mo old that died were first responders reported: "He said it was a “horrible, sad situation” and one of the worst scenes he’s been to in 30 years.

Most interstates have some form of protective barrier where there is risk to homes. Especially a high speed, high traffic zones like the Turnpike.

There are barriers protecting cars from trees in the same area, placed before Villages construction.

Barriers don’t always work and they certainly don’t mitigate noise enough to remove the factor that people bought next door to a roaring, noisy beast.

I truly don’t understand the mindset of people buying homes next to an interstate and then having the nerve to complain about the noise.

I don't disagree with your second point.

Some decades back, I told my wife that I'd pay extra for a home next to railroad tracks.

She looked at me sort of weirdly...

That may be what it says but a good lawyer may be able to challenge that for many reasons. May even use the argument that any loss should be absorbed by the developer for failure to disclose. Never can tell what a court case will result in when it goes to trial. Just saying that if the developer is selling to a buyer, knowing that there is a noise issue that is pending and does not disclose to an absentee buyer, there may be sympathetic ears. Would the developer allow that to go to court?

What did the developer not disclose? The existence of the turnpike? There’s a cool new tool, called goolge maps.
