At 23, she can live here. Maybe the best thing to do is once she is here, let her decide whether she likes it or not. If it's a no go, then look at options.

One suggestion for you when reading the answers posted: throw out the #1 most positive and #1 most negative comment, and consider the rest.

That is right. A 23 year old is not a minor and she is probably captain of her own ship.

I haven't heard any negative comments about well-intentioned and respectful young people who live with their parents.
Smeck, I think your daughter will do well here if she likes the lifestyle. Not all 23 year olds would be enthusiastic about living in a retirement community, no matter that it's vibrant and offers a great lifestyle. I'm sure people will be friendly to her, and she will easily find employment in a restaurant or store if she is so inclined. If she has a medical background, there should be scads of opportunities.

Oops.
Actually, there are upwards of 110,000 people living here in the season. Good and bad. I have met a ton of good people. But ,as a young person, I could not imagine wanting to live here. Let's face it. It is geared towards seniors, as it should be. Most young people, I think, would want to live around their own generation, with activities geared toward what their generation is interested in. |

It seems to depend of the personality of the person moving here be they 23 or 63 or 83.
It does not take much to keep me happy and I moved here at 46 or so in 2005 from Palm Harbor, Florida. Highway 19 and all its traffic and headaches is something I hardly miss. More options in shopping, movies, theaters, walks and the like is a loss however. Highway 19 is one of the most dangerous in the US. It is in the Tampa Bay area. My younger brother was here for 1.5 years back around 2009-2010 but he did not fit in all that well here. While my older brother is used to cities like DC and San Francisco, so the Villages would probably be way too quiet for him. He does enjoy the less stressful environment the every 6 month trip he comes down here though. There are times when I do miss the company of people of my own age and interests however.

No law against it, I'm sure she will settle in fine. Lots of young people around the villages and I'm sure she will like the weather and within hour or so from the beaches. There about 30 percent that thinks they should close the gate after they move here, so anybody after them and younger they resent. Then there the ones that been here forever thinking they have priority over new comers. They will always find something to complain about.
It's your dime if your family want to live here nothing stopping you except making the transition. |

This young person can teach Elementary School. I am sure she will find a place. Good teachers are always needed.

[QUOTE=Smeck;1141414]I won't resent her. Maybe she can be a doctor. Higher demand here for that than teachers. I'm happy with my doctor but if she is a 9 or 10 I could switch. Still living the dream.
