Finally someone talking sense

Amen

Building 30,000 new homes doesn’t bring on traffic problems???

So The Villages over building....just approved an other 30,000 homes that’s not the problem but the apartment that will home 800 people is.......really......really
Trust me it’s not apartment is not going to be your traffic problem it’s The Villages wanting 2 hundred thousand people living here by the end of the day

Thank you....great statement

Where do you think the people worried about this should move to?

my thoughts,

looks like a lot of folks that work in TV for low wages will have an opportunity to shorten their commute and enjoy moving into new digs

people that earn less than six figures matter too....

let's not forget, they are the ones that tend bar, work in professional offices, work retail, mow your lawn and wait on your table in The Villages

apartments
 

Its always said that the apartments are needed for the workers in the Villages, Perhaps so but why are they not being built where the workers of the Villages need them, south of 44?

clueless ??
 

Name names

News flash !! The workers NORTH of 44 also need a decent place to live. The immediate need is exactly where they are going. As more business opens south, they may need some as well.

Just because people have low incomes doesnt make them border line criminals. They are harder workers trying to make a living with minimum wage jobs. Theyre no different than people with money who own a house or 2 in the villages except they are working their butts off to survive

They are being built where there is demand. The demand is still low south of 44, but it will grow and then the apartments will come. Not everyone who works in the villages does construction. I suspect construction workers are the minority.

And they are usually nicer people and more honest than some of these entitled rags. Good post.

Most Villagers are Restricted Income residents.


:clap2:

A great many people in The Villages have incomes restricted to Social Security, and that may be $1,000 to $2,500 a month. It depends on how much they earned while working. That means plenty are living below the poverty line. They might qualify for these apartments. The reason they can afford to live here is that they had enough equity to pay cash for their home in The Villages, and they may have moved here years ago. They can’t really afford to rent one of the new apartments in The Villages on $1,000 a month.
