I would suggest you visit The Villages and explore the various areas. Also, only you can decide what size home and what features are important to you.

I’m almost willing to view pylons, to have no neighbors behind & knowing nothing can be built there. Plus it the grass is maintained.

I do not want to see a pylon near my house. We call them Iron Giants. Chitty Chatty houses are not selling fast now because they are located near the new Walmart. One thing that I do not like about Chitty Chatty is that there is only entrance into this village by car.

Well, that's interesting. So there isn't a prison, Coleman, south of 44, the bonds aren't higher, taxes aren't higher and there is no traffic in the new areas and the landscaping south of 44 will never need replacing or the buildings need painting? Huh.

The poster was simply pointing out everything to take into consideration, I didn't see her telling the OP to only buy north of 44, just providing content for thought.

BTW, those south of 44 spend a lot of their precious time trying to get to the "big box stores" and those older floor plans and lot sizes may be desirable to some. But to make their choices, they should have all the details so they can decide what to choose. Neither location is a bad choice, just different elements to consider.

^ absolutely agree with this, but that is not the posting history of many, including the one to whom I was responding. You are correct - there is a reason that Henry Ford's choice of car colors is no longer. Different people have different wants, needs, abilities, preferences, etc.

Visit
 

I second this recommendation. We came down two winters from Michigan and rented for a few months. We rented in different places and discovered where we wanted to be. Highly recommended.

And at that one entrance, it is dangerous to turn left.

There are plans for a roundabout at that entrance. Don’t recall the timetable.

That will make for a nice long detour during construction.

Not even close to true.

I visit friends Chitty Chatty regularly. It is not a dangerous left turn - unless your driving skills are lacking in which case many left turns are dangerous.

Back up the turnpike
 

I have a home in Deluna that backs up to the turnpike also bought a huge backyard, about 60 feet to the wall. I'll take Turnpike noise over a neighbor 15 feet away in my backyard any day.!!!
It's a veranda model so the yard is fenced in and it's huge, probably unusually large. I put in a big pool and waterfall. The turnpike noise is something you can get over, more of a background noise except during the winter months when the leaders are off the trees. And I'm hard or hearing anyway.lol
Yeah 301 will be a mess for a long time and who knows what's going on the other side. They're actually supposed to put a roundabout in at March Bend & 301 which is lunacy

Might want to check your odometer, I think it’s broken!

Yeah, I do not like to turn left without the aid of a traffic light or a roundabout, but I would never turn left onto a 4-lane road like Morse.

When we moved here 9 years ago, we chose to buy a house in Osceola Hills so we would never have to turn left to leave our neighborhood.

I used to live there. It is very dangerous. The cars driving on Morse Blvd are driving very fast. No reason to gaslight the poster.
