This information is outdated

This is great stuff and the categories are relative to today's measurements. Now for the bottom line to those who are critics. It has always been and will forever be my opinion that you can find a critic on any street corner for a dime but it is hard to find that creative person who is positive and is an asset to the world. Which are you the asset or worthless critic?

Sadly, thanks to a small group of people (who received a lot of money through our misery and loss), numbers 104 through 107 are no longer valid.

I found this interesting but outdated since it is 8 years old. I wonder if the author plans on updating it?

Cool Facts About The Villages

[John_W]

I knew the VA clinic at Mulberry was big, been inside there many times, but didn't know it was 99,000 square feet. That's twice the size of the new Publix under construction at Trailwinds, which is going to be 49,000 square feet. I believe the one at Colony is about the same, and the one at Lake Deaton Plaza I believe it was 54,000 square feet.

It's October 11, 2021. How many swimming pools are there in the Villages currently? Are there any lap pools for exercise? Thanks for any info.

There are over a hundred (probably more like 120+ now) swimming pools if you include the neighborhood pools, the "family" pools and the sports pools There are 10 sports with Olympic-length lanes. These pools are for residents-only (guest passes don't work there) as they hold so many classes there (water aerobics, zoomba, water volleyball, etc.). You can only swim during "open swim" periods. See the regularly updated schedule for the sports pools in the link below.

Wow! That info is amazing! I might even buy a place in TV. Oh...I already own a place. Add one more item to your list, i.e. its a very forgiving place for people who occasionally have a dash of senioritis set in!

All too often, we forget that we live in a place that is really marvelous. I love the fact that at the same time that there is so much to do here, it is also a place where I can find a nice quiet niche to watch the sun and the birds and little else!
