So to directly answer the actual questions asked:

Anyone age 19 or older is allowed to purchase a house, and cannot be denied the right to purchase it based on age.

But there are only two ways someone 19-54 years old is allowed to actually live in that house:
1. There is someone age 55 or older living there too

OR

2. They fall within that 20% category of people who are allowed to live in a house in the Villages even though they're under 55.

Just to be clear. It is 20% of homes. I was recently told that about 7% of homes are occupied by under 55. That means that currently, anyone under 55 can purchase and live in a home.

Theoretically, a 19 year old could buy a house here and live in it as long as they have not gone over the 80/20 rule. Or, a 45 year old couple with kids 21 and 19 could live here also. I personally, don't know why anybody under 55 would want to live here, but that's just me.
Just pointing out the family village located behind Target on 441 does have MMP access.

According to our sales agent, The Villages owns two areas that allow families that include kids under 19 to live there, but they are not considered to be part of The Villages. People in the family areas cannot access The Villages amenities.

True, and since they are supposedly way under the 20% the second condition you mention applies.

Anyone over 19 can buy here and live here. Heck, they can even rent out rooms in their home to other 19 year olds by the week or whatever since there is no rental restrictions here.
