A health care provider, regardless of age, is allowed to live with a senior. Maybe he falls under that rule.

The 18yo was arrested, the astro turf is coming out. At some point violations do catch up.

Isn't there a 6 year old living with his grandfather, because the mother is a junkie?

PugMom 07-03-2020 09:15 AM

some of these 'kids' are not here by choice. our daughter is staying with us after the corona shut down the university she was @. she was supposed to stay up north, working, then on the way to grad school. everyone's plans were cancelled & she is stuck with us. i say 'stuck' because there are hundreds of places she'd rather be, instead of an over 55 community, dodging golf carts & standing in line @ walgreens

This is NOT a restricted community.....
 
Anyone 19 years or older may purchase a home here and live here as long as they have no children under the age of 19 living with them. The restriction is that children under 19 meaning 18 and younger may only stay for a total of 30 days per year. That has never been enforced to the best of my knowledge. The Federal Government has set a percentage of, I believe, 10% residence at age 19 years. Years ago TV was advertised as a retirement community. It is not and they stopped advertising as such. It is advertised as a "Active Living Community for Adults" not a place just for people over 55 years of age. They also years ago advertised "Free golf for life" and that is not completely true either and they have since stopped advertising it as such as well. So, if your salesperson selling you your home told you that it was childrenless they were wrong.

Perfect. If I had know my kids couldn’t visit I wouldn’t have bought in the Villages. I have a son in Scottsdale 23 and. Son and his wife 29 and 25 in Philadelphia. It seemed like a perfect family place to meet up and play golf and vacation for a week or so together.

• There is a misconception in The Villages that we have to allow under-age persons to live here. That is WRONG. We do NOT have to allow ANY under-age persons to live here. Federal regulations require at least 80% residents must be occupied by one person 55 years of age or older. The regulations mean we cannot have OVER 20% under-age living here and still be considered a 55+ community. We can have ZERO under-age persons here. Many retirement communities around here do not allow ANYONE under 55 to live in their retirement communities. Our developer set the policy to allow underage persons and felons to live among us.

The Developer is responsible for young permanent residents ,but refuses to enforce the covenant disallowing it.

Who said they couldn't visit that's the furthest thing from the truth they can visit no problem and they could live here. Those under the age of 19 can't live here more than 30 days.

I think he is 8, and has been living here since he was born.

And you wonder why the positive cases are going up.

He must be a helluva caregiver, despite kicking her butt.

Regarding kids 19 and under, anything under 30 days is VISITING, anything over 30 days is "living here." Seems that should be pretty straightforward/common sense/obvious/simple to most people.
No children living here was one of the biggest things that attracted us childfree by choice couples to come to TV. We moved here from a community in south Florida where our next door neighbor's spawn SET FIRE TO OUR LAWN!!
Enough said.

If she is over 19, you are not violating the rules. But if she is NOT, well then, I think you know.
