WOW how in the heck do you know each area, village etc. Fantastic video. Thank you.

Thanks Don! Awesome!

Can't get that perspective driving around for sure.

TV should buy it for promotional materiel

Thanks

Thanks for the video flyover! We just bought in Hillsboro. The building stats were a great addition!

Thanks for the info. It is going to be very nice.

Thank you for that. Very interesting and informative.

These comments again? In short, they only release enough information to keep the development going and permits processed. If you're not in the developer's inner circle you don't get to see the entire picture. None of us are in that inner circle. Contrary to what some seem to believe, the area south of SR44 is growing at about the same pace as previous areas of The Village. The difference is that this area has much greater visibility of what is happening due to the roads passing through it and the area has a lot more green spaces and water features that other areas making it physically larger. For comparison CDD-10 and CDD-12 both will have about 6600 homes, but CDD-10 is about 1500 acres and CDD-12 is nearly 2500 acres.

I've previously talked about this same issue in the below thread in post #17 as well as several other threads.

Very nice, thank you for all that work!

I suggest you pay more attention to the posts and links that are provided by Goldwingnut and others.....you seem to be missing the information, or maybe ignoring it?

Where are the championship golf course over there?

You never mentioned a championship golf course on the new side. Why would anyone want to buy over there without a championship course? How sad The Villages doesn’t think that important. It’s the only reason I bought here.

First, the championship course are privately owned and are not considered amenities. That being said, there have been just over 2000 home sold south of SR44 which isn't close to being enough to support a championship course. Statistically, based on the numbers north of SR44, it takes between 190-200 homes per hole to support a championship course, so to support a typical 27 hole championship course it takes just north of 5000 homes. Unless you intend to write them a check every month for any shortfall in revenue, you'll just have to wait for their time schedule. We are not a part of the planning team so we have no idea what is coming until they start to file for the permits to build.

I'm no engineer, but do those "berms" really prevent much noise from the turnpike ?? Those homes look awfully close.

Since the turnpike already exists new homes are not eligible for a government sponsored noise wall.
