Many of our rivers and lakes have Native American names. Like Japanese names, NA names usually have 3-5 syllables and each syllable is consonant-vowel. That is why these names sound very pleasing, unlike European names that have syllables that are consonant-vowel-consonant. |

The real news for that area is what commercial properties are going to be built at the 301/468 intersection. All has been very quiet on this property but work is progressing quickly. Coleman has two choices; grow or die. If they decide to embrace the growth around them and cater to the needs of a growing community they will also grow and prosper with it. If they want to stick their heads in the sand and hate The Villages and the people that are moving to this sections of Florida then the 301 corridor will thrive and they will wither and die as a community. My guess is that they will be like Wildwood, kicking and screaming how they hate The Villages and saying it's not a good fit for their community, until they realize the huge tax windfall they will be receiving and have to do next to nothing for the residents to receive it, like Wildwood is now doing. Here's a map of the area the paper was taking about.

Probably the old timers that are happy with the status quo. They will be close to the industrial park and I read somewhere that they are putting up apartments somewhere along 301 in Coleman, maybe that will help keep the next generation in their hometown. I also read in the Daily Sun that Sumter county has one of the highest rates of unemployment in the state which is a little confusing with all of the growth going on within the county.
