[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Villages in FL[/quote]

Yes, I’d love to spend my retirement years with 100,000 people driving around in golf carts holding 1/2 gallon jugs of Fleishman’s gin wearing Hawaiian shirts and cargo shorts. But, people must love it! [/quote]

Super MAGA there, too. And all that comes with that. [/quote]

I have read that about the Villages before, and there is even a documentary about the community (I think on HBO or Vice), but the people we bought our house from were selling so they could move down there and retire from Maryland and they absolutely love it. These are very hippy, liberal and super nice people. When they told us that was where they were moving and how they couldn't wait to relocate, I was surprised given how liberal they are. I couldn't have asked for nicer sellers, they were absolutely lovely in every way. They left their grown kids in Maryland and just picked up and left. We've kept in touch with them and they're super happy about the move.

We have friends who had a beautiful home in Florida (regular neighborhood not 55+) and decided to sell and move to West Coast be closer to adult daughter and family. A few years later, they moved back to Florida. They learned (the hard way) that adult children have their own lives, as do grandkids. Sadly, they could not afford to purchase a similar home due to price increases so they wound up in a condo. But they are much happier and glad they moved back. [/quote]
