The biggest issue you'll have is drunken golf cart drivers and obnoxious drunks at the bars since the "bar" on liquor liability laws are very low. also. most crimes are petty and from the "help"

Drunks or drunk golfer’s speeding to next tee times?

I used to not even lock my house in the day time. And never locked my car. Now I lock up everything. And yes we do have theft in here. Sumpter is probably the safest place. Not near a highway and not where there are lots of houses around you that are new and not yet sold. And yes there are problems here now. When this Villages had locked gates I felt so safe. I rented before buying and stayed 1 mo a year in all different areas so that I would be sure where I wanted to be when I bought. I could not get into that rental until I pushed that red button that now opens the gate for you. When I pushed it there is a speaker next to it. The speaker would come on and a real person would ask your name where you were going and for what reason. Then they opened the gate. my neighbor had a golf cart taken and one was taken from the pool by truck while the person was swimming. If the gate was locked he couldn't have gotten in.

Are you talking about a specific village...or all of the 'fake-gated' ones in general? And when were the gates "gates locked?" |

They can walk over to your house, steal your golf cart, and drive it out where a buyer waits for their delivery. I'm not saying this happens but I am saying your logic is illogical. |

Many of the very few issues are done by service people working in and around your house. Ive been here for 22 years and know of few problems

I have always felt in the Lake Sumter area where we live.

We have a security system and had one in each home we lived in ( only 4 homes in 38 years ).
Never installed security cameras outside but that might change. I do feel very safe here and hope it continues to feel safe.

After Spectrum pulled out of the alarm system business we had The Villages Alarm Co. install a new system.
They did a great job and our house was spotless when they left.

I pay only $80 a quarter to Village alarm and they did a great job. I like having an alarm especially when out of town.
