Re: EVERYBODY SEEMS TO LOVE THE VILLAGES, i WOULD LIKE TO HEAR WHAT YOU HATE BESIDE
Mail boxes are not luck of the draw....
They are assigned to an address and cannot be changed... Thats how they get the mail sorted so quickly., they have a system to place mail in your area....
Besides when it goes out, its secure and when it comes in its secure until you pick it up , great system, love it , If this creates a problem then the only thing you can do is , watch people pick up their mail, when you see someone who has a choice location , follow them home and buy a house in their area......only kidding , but many retirement communities have this system and it seems to work well for the majority.......

Not sure what I hate about The Villages, but what I hate about TOTV is posts like the one about what frost heaves could possibly be. Hard to explain why you are laughing when you are alone in a room. Husband thinks I've lost it.

ROTFLMAO ;D That is a good one. Never thought of that!!!!!
When we sold our CYV to move to our ranch the closing agent asked what the mailbox number was for the CYV. I could not remember!!! I had been here 5 years and just went directly to the box without thinking about it. I could show them but tell the number--no way.

I think it would be nice if the snow birds had functional kitchens and used them a couple days a week ;D
