No, TV is not getting too big. Every new area gets its own pools, golf courses, groceries, etc. If you live in the north you don't need to drive to the south, so why would you care?

But the problem is no one has found "big" on the map, so no one knows how to get there, not to mention the problem of moving 32 sq. miles of the Villages:1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl:

Some are run by the town. The Town of Lady Lake handles the road maintenance up in Village of Country Club Hills.

No, no one "needs" to drive from one end to the other. Many do, however. The executive golf courses are all open to all Villagers. There are golfers who try and golf at as many as they can throughout the year.

There are also pool groups that hop from one pool to another. That's actually a good thing. Imaging a single group of 20 people always occupying the same pool every day, and that's the pool closest to where you live, and you want to relax in the pool. But you can't. Because in addition to the non-group people, the group people are always there too. Thankfully - they move around, so everyone gets to enjoy having a fun group of pool-hoppers sometimes, and they also get to -not- have the group the rest of the time. It's a win-win for everyone.

There are also clubs that only meet in one rec center, and if it's an activity of particular interest, then that's where you need to meet other folks with the same interest.

Different rec center buildings have different amenities as well. If I want to go to a pool that has a jacuzzi, there is only one that I know of, in the entire Villages that's open to all residents. And that's on my side of the Villages, the Historic Section off 441 across from Spanish Springs Town Square.

So again - no, you don't "need" to go north or south. But you are paying for the option to do so if you wish, and the more people who live in the Villages, the more likely you are to see people who choose to take advantage of the option.
