Friendly!!! I was pleasantly surprised by the number of waves hello and verbal greetings I received from the village residents upon my first weeks here. It was a really nice welcome and helped me to feel at ease since I was traveling here alone. Thank you!!!

To me Villagers are better described as a smorgasbord than as a stereotype. Their chief commonality is that they are weather refugees from "up north" (if not Floridians moving from elsewhere within the state).

Over-all this might be a way to describe the Villagers other-wise, we've found folks to be helpful and friendly.

I prefer the loud, aggressive, opinionated. My wife does not. She tells me every chance she gets, about me.

I'm happy to be alive also.

And when I saw that this thread has already garnered a dozen or so pages, I just shook my head in wonderment and almost drank the Kool Aid.
