For those who want solitude, it might be their cup of tea. Get over it. If u ask the majority of villagers, they don't like the distance away. Maybe u don't get out enough, to talk to other villagers. Are they getting their own square as ours are crowded enough??? Maybe you don't go to them often enough to realize that. Also if u get out enough to talk to villagers, you would also hear they want the building to stop. My goodness, let people voice their opinions. Just because it's different then yours , doesn't mean it won't help someone else!
I agree.....some people on here just don't want any other opinions then their own.....

A WHOLE BUNCH OF People are going to be moving to Florida and none of us should be surprised if they want to move here. I bet you five dollars Hula that the area will be built in between Brownwood and Fenny in three years. Personally, I love where we live on 466 but had to suffer a lot of insulting conversation about how dumb we were to buy in that village right on that noisy road.

Is Fenny getting their own square? Fenny itself as a now isolated area most likely is not, but if there is enough population to warrant commercial real estate leasing, one will be built, I'd venture to guess. This isn't their first rodeo.

Many of us drive to Ocala for dinner and take the "back roads" back home in the dark and return home from the beach late too, I think your fears of all those dark roads are silly.

I don't think my opinion matches the majority of villagers anymore than yours except for my politics.

People are going to continue to move here and continue to think that their street, their neighborhood, their village, their age group are the best. Somebody is going to move near us, adjacent to us, close to The Villages. I would just as soon it be run well, so I think it is a plus if it is part of The Villages instead of some slick eddie builder.

So.............Do you dance the Hula or do Hula Hoops? Just wondering.

Hula. You may not be aware, we heard from Mark Morse's mouth at the "State of The Villages" evening at the Sharon, that that very afternoon they had contracted for the last bit of property that would tie Fenny to the rest of The Villages and that cart paths would be built from Fenny to the existing Villages.

I had never gone to the State of The Villages, and you have to get up early to get a ticket. Sweetie got us front row. That is us and Mark Morse. Aren't we running with the big dogs?

Gracie. It's like this. If I'm hiring a contractor (which we are in process of doing now) and I ask villagers for their opinions Based on their experience, sure I want to hear the good. But I also need to hear from those who had Bad experiences as it will Help us in making our decision. I do not want to hear only One point of view. How foolish that would be and naive. I don't like the Bashing on this site when your opinion is different then another's. It's fine with me if driving on the desolate roads doesn't bother you. That's your right and opinion. Based on my past career, I have seen and experienced more than many others so I base my opinions over a lifetime of experiences. PS. I hula hoop among a million other activities and love them all

Opinion is one thing......rehashing the same negative comments 15+ times is overkill.
