    I'm 42 and my husband and I own a Courtyard Villa in Spanish Springs here in The Villages! We both still work full time. We appreciate that it's less crowded than Orlando (lived in Orlando for 23 years and still visit regularly) but enjoy how well maintained The Villages is and many other perks of living here :) To each their own, right?

    There are other places in Lake county that you can live that isn't a retirement community. :) Lady Lake, Fruitland Park. etc. The list goes on.

    I'm scratching my head that why would a 30-something have any desire to live in The Villages...by choice. Why would you do that to yourself? I mean, talking about feeling out of place. Just can't wrap my mind around it.

    They may go for the many employment opportunities there -- and it ain't the older people doing most of them, is it. Or, contractors that see The Villages as a steady stream of work. Most people (anywhere) prefer to live close to their work to avoid the long commutes. Or, maybe they're a real estate agent and want to sell homes there! Who knows.

    Why would anyone want to live in The Villages at any age. No need to reply I know you all love being in the middle of no where in Florida, surround by 100k + people ridding your golf cart everywhere and telling everyone who will listen about how big of a macker you were in NY or Jersey.

    The Villages are terrible. A bunch of greedy seniors, acting like jerks. Their monthly, undeserved, Federal welfare checks should be eliminated. Their Medicare premiums should be tripled. These common sense policy changes would benefit all Americans.

    ...right, just like "common sense" gun control: MORE clueless liberal BS from people who live in a fantasy world, not reality. As for Villagers, they did their time (younger years/careers) in the real world, so let them enjoy their retirement how THEY see fit, not you.
