I would give Virginia Trace the top walkability score, 89! I walk five miles a day and live one half mile from Lake Sumter Landing. A grocery store, bookstore, lake, three small waterfalls, a theatre, hairdresser and of course, rec centers, pools and music every night are some of my destinations. I love this location!

I live near Colony. There are a many homes within Pine Ridge and Pine Hills that are walking distance to groceries etc. I often see folks walking home with grocery bags.

We live just south of Spanish Springs, and can walk to Publix if we choose, as well as restaurants, clothing stores, golf cart service center, Hardware store, etc. Or it's less than a 5 minute golf cart ride also. Living around Spanish Springs offers all the necessities of life within a very short distance, plus easy access to the bridge across 441 for access to Lowes, CHASE, WalMart, Aldis, Sally Beauty, medical offices, and soon to be BJ's mega store.

best village for walking
I'm almost afraid to say this!
Tall Trees, walk to, library, Publix, both drugstore, many restaurants, dr and dental services, pool, a little further and you'll find walmart, more restaurants and shopping. |
The Village of Tall Trees along 466 has a Publix, Walgreens, CVS, 6 banks, The Villages Library, 2 gas stations, 6+ sit down restaurants plus fast food places , Laurel Recreation Center, 2 golf courses that you can walk, High School sporting events and all within 6 blocks of each other.

While the village of Spanish Springs is the oldest community in The Villages, there are many, many homes and villas within blocks of the Spanish Springs town square and La Plaza Grande South shopping center.
When we first moved here and our goods and new ordered furniture were not yet arrived/delivered, we ate out for 3 weeks within 3/4ths of a mile from our home and only ate at the same place on a few occasions. Most destinations were only 2-3 blocks from our house and easily walked and 2 minutes away in a golf cart. Doesn't get much better than that! [:-)> |

I'm with you, OP, and walkability is exactly the reason I moved to the Spanish Springs area. No other area has easy access to Department stores, Best Buy, Home Depot and zillions of restaurants - in addition to all the things mentioned above.

In agreement with the other Spanish Springs comments, we live in Village Del Mar and routinely walk to Publix or Winn Dixie. Great way to get inyour 10000 steps! Many other shops to visit within the Square or the shopping mall strip.
