Infestation of Florida is increasing at a rapped pace and will continue and as this is happening every piece of land will be bought and possibly developed until there is nothing left.
In the mid 50s, they almost had to pay people to move to Long Island, N.Y., today some of those same people are moving here to Florida just to get away from the congestion.
This is just a natural progression, years from now hopefully long after I'm gone many of the same people who moved here, will be on the move somewhere else to get away from the congestion.
If you want to know where just follow the money.

will we have to pay a city tax when we are in the Orlando extended city limits?

Diversification by the Villages into the industrial/commercial sector with a proven company that already has over 800 properties in 40 states. Seems like a good thing for everyone in Sumter County.

Since COVID with WFH there is a huge change in where people live. You are no longer tied to living where you work. Florida has an advantage over the North to get away from Winter. We are also seeing the largest group of people retire, Baby Boomers, and they want to escape the cold. Also many more are retiring before full retirement and wanting to escape the cold and congestion. Florida will be attractive for a good 30 more years. The developer of TV is designing everything active close to or retirees want which makes it very desirable.

This is great for the area. Industrial and commercial land generates good tax money for the community but also good paying jobs for the locals which is certainly a plus.
