I am a retired pastry chef and we bought a Charlotte with the larger kitchen. I think my biggest issue is finding room for all my kitchen toys. Haha. |

Not sure what part of NC you are from. We are just outside Raleigh and they can t build fast enough for all the people moving here. Our house sold in 2 days 20k OVER our asking price with 6 offers. Even with high interest rates. Traffic is awful every where. They keep building but not improving the roads to handle it. Taxes keep getting raised..yes they are lower then Florida but there are more things for a happy life then paying lower taxes. Medical care has gone downhill as all the drs are getting bought out by the large hospital systems causing higher prices which is causing insurance companies battles. We have uhc and UNC which is about everyone refused to accept uhc insurance for a few months because they were disagreeing on prices. So be careful what you wish for. ...you may want to do research before moving back. When we decided it was time to move we looked all over the country and the villages beleive it or not just ticked a lot of our wants on our list.

Our house was built in 2021 so not sure how it's wired. We probably will wait till we move to decide and just use our tmobile home till we figure it out.
Furniture prices are nuts since the pandemic. We don't need much and may end up just ordering from Costco haha Citrus Grove in a few blocks away so I guess we are in Citrus Grove. This is very new to us...we don't live in a "neighborhood " currently..we are still wrapping our heads around that we don't need our riding mower anymore! |

Welcome to the Villages and to TOTV! This is a very exciting time for you, and you are going to love the area you are moving to. Sawgrass has so much to offer l- the show kitchen, villages grown market and meat market, boozey bingo on Mondays, pretty good pizza, Ezell, Southern Oaks, and near so many great walking trails. You’ll enjoy the high-energy vibe, and most residents in the area are hyper-active and social. Regarding furniture - I bought all my pieces on-line from Pottery Barn, but they also have a storefront at Millenia Mall in Orlando.

That's not the criteria to determine whether or not The Villages is a good place to live though. So it's possible that a person can be happy living here, where the pizza sucks. The attitude that's most harmful, is the one that says northerners who think the pizza here sucks, are bad influences, or somehow negatively affect the entire community. I'd say the whole "you have a differing opinion and you're not afraid to express it" hatred is what negatively affects the entire community. The houses and landscaping and yards and layouts of some areas in the Villages might all be interchangeable and conform into one nice neat perfect plastic photograph, but the people who live in them are as varied as the stars in the sky. That is a good thing, and people should celebrate those differences instead of complaining that they exist. In short: the pizza here really does suck. AND the Villages has plenty of things to attract people from all over the world. |
