I’m very happy here! It’s been easy to make new friends here.
A well maintained nice clean place to be retired. You can be as active as you’d like. “Happiness is an inside job!”

Love that it is beautiful; Love our little house and yard; Love that there are walking areas (although I wish there were more that are shaded). Love that the snowbirds leave. Discovered I love golf (didn't play until we moved here). Love that we have a lanai where the cats can sit and watch the wildlife. Love the diverse wildlife- I never get tired of the Sand Hill Cranes. Love the biodiversity. So don't tell me to just leave! Last edited by sharonl7340; 05-22-2024 at 06:59 AM. |

Been here 23 years, retired early and so happy we did. Love it here now that it's grown and everything you'd ever need is here. All our friends here love it here too. Florida us a beautiful state, get out and explore it. Every place has it's good, bad and it's ugly. TV and FL have an abundance of good. Look for it, enjoy it and have a great retirement.

You sound unhappy here. Curious why you don’t move back up North? Many do for various reasons. You should live where it makes you happy in retirement especially Thanks for sharing.

Politics though - without getting deep - you express disappointment in the Developers' choices to turn TV into sprawl. And yet you vote for officials who promote that sprawl and support the Developers' choices. That perplexes me. Not just with you, but with everyone who lives here and is disappointed with those choices being made. The citizens can enact change and tell the Developers "no, you won't be expanding to Disneyworld, and that's that." All they have to do is vote for people who will put their zoning feet down and tell them no, and stick with it. It might cost a few bucks more every year going forward, if the Developer doesn't get his increasingly enormous piece of the pie and the towns don't expand at the rate of 1000 new homes every 6 months. But isn't this supposed to be a senior Heaven on Earth? Isn't that worth a few bucks more every year? If not, then they really shouldn't be complaining. |

Please be nice to OBB. She responded to my question about what she did not like. Open and honest communication is a good thing and she stated her opinion and really did not attack anyone just why she did not like certain things. We should applaud that not condemn it.

I do not understand the love for basements. Everyone I know who has one has had flooding in it. One thing I like about TV is no basement

I do get tired of the complainers and the traffic, but there are grumpy people and busy traffic lots of places so you get mostly good here, and put up with the little stuff you don't care for. You can choose to be happy or you can choose to be unhappy...why be unhappy? |
