Between the sixes is the place for me I think.... I just loved it when I was there!

I agree, it's my favorite area lately too

I visited The Villages from May 6-13. On Friday, 5/12, I went to Lake Sumter Landing for the BMW club car show. 🚗 No one would let me test drive their BMW. 😂 I went to 2 open houses for new patio villas in Newell...the bond is $23K on a new patio villa...I think I will stay north of 466 if I buy a home in TV. Thank you for the tour of between the 6's.

I totally agree that Bridgeport is beautiful. One of my favorites along with Lake Sumter cottages, Marsh Bend and Harmswood. Although everywhere in The Villages is charming. Just a matter of your personal needs and desires.

The village of Bridgeport...very nice!!

Loved this! Especially the campaign to get Chief a million+ home, and the tiny planet mode was awesome! 😊 I liked the music choice in this video better than the 1st on this series, seemed more upbeat. Thanks for doing this series, very helpful to those interested in knowing more, seeing and doing more on a lifestyle visit to pinpoint where to focus their search for their future TV home. Keep up the great work! We appreciate it!

I'm sitting in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado researching The Villages. Your tours are so helpful in getting an idea what the sections ("Below the 6s") are referring to and what the areas actually look like. Very helpful. TY.

More Bald Eagles nesting on high tension electric line towers near San Marino/Prado Blvd./San Pedro area - The residential area East of Morse along the big tower lines is the spot and you'll see any nests that are active. You can see with naked eye but binoculars or camera zoom is best. There are two pairs that take up two or three even adjacent towers to raise their chicks each year. Of course not all year long but in the early Spring is best for spotting young. The chicks and young Bald Eagles are brown or grey-brown. The eagles hunt in the big field that is privately owned there.

You know, Chief, this section looks so different from the newer areas-- this is so spacious and beautiful. Some of the new sections don't even have enough parking. Until I watched this video, I really didn't appreciate the difference. Bet in the long term, this affects values. Of course Middletown et al will probably change all this. Until watching these videos though, I was a little clueless. Appreciate your efforts.

Hey Chief, this is the second time I’ve watched this one. You’ve convinced me to seriously look at Bridgeport and some of the more northern parts when we are ready to shop for a home. Is it me or do many of these homes (Bridgeport for example) seem to have larger lots?

I'm surprised by the lack of car traffic, golf cart traffic & foot traffic in your videos. Are you editing these things out for video flow or...... is it a certain time of day? Or maybe it's just me, because I live in California so I notice such things. I agree with the others. Very good video; & yes, definitely monetize. Thank you for your service. I was in the Melbourne area last week & I really love how Florida treats our Vets.
