    Good for them to investigate all around for their forever home. Good interview....nice people. But in Arizona, the Del Web communities (that started in the 1960’s) of Sun City, Sun City West and Sun City Grand in Phoenix (each community has around 100K people living in it) do have all facilities available by using your golf cart. If you loose your license, no problem, you can still drive a golf cart sunrise to sun down to get your groceries, medical appointments/hospital, post office, all recreation centers, strip malls of shopping, BUT you must drive on the streets where the cars drive. This golf cart mingling with car situation does intimidate as you get older. There are also Sun Cities in Tucson I am not familiar with but they probably are built similar.

    Here are my thoughts on living in The Villages. It is an idyllic almost perfect place to live. It is beautiful and well maintained. BUT. For my taste, it's not really that convenient or as convenient as I am used to. What I mean by that is that whenever you need to go somewhere it's sort of a mini journey. A simple thing like getting your mail. I have always been used to having my mail delivered to my home. With these new areas being opening. Going to the supermarket is like living on the Ponderosa with the Cartwrights. When you need "supplies" You need to "saddle up" go into town. Yes, The Villages is greatly self-contained with all necessary amenities available i.e. shopping, healthcare, etc. On the other hand. The Villages isn't really that close to other points of interest. Sporting, events, airports, etc. are not that close. I am obviously in the minority in the way I feel. It appears as though they can't build the homes fast enough to meet demand.
    We have friends that live in The Villages and have visited them many times. They are all very happy with their decision to live in The Villages. Just not for us. That's why there is chocolate and vanilla.

We also came from a major city and had to get used to the lifestyle down here. People are more friendly and sociable down here.
      We were wide open as to where we wanted to live in Florida. We basically wanted to be anywhere south of Orlando. Really didn't matter which coast. After some research, we narrowed it down to the West Coast. When we decided on an area, we checked out the shopping and health care and what was close and available. We found a great area that is close to everything we need. Oh yes, we are in the Tampa Bay area. If you are a Yankees fan. You will love it here. They do Spring Training here and you can see them when they play the Tampa Rays.

      I have a friend who lives about a a mile from Lake Sumter Landing. Winn Dixie is about 6 minutes from her home. Publix is about 12 minutes from her home. She has many restaurants within 15 minutes from her home. Her church on 466 is 12 minutes from her home. And a lot less traffic than suburban Chicago, even during snowbird season.

      Thanks. I have cousins that live in North Port for about 45 years. They always tell me come. What about the weather with hurricanes and summer heat and humidity. OMG. It’s so hard for me to step out of my box.

    Great video, I need to convince my wife to move to the villages but she says too hot. Wondering, do you take your golf cart to go grocery shopping? I guess you would need some type of netting to keep the groceries from falling out. Not sure why I would want to know this, but you guys are so approachable that I thought I would ask. I know you probably get this a lot but would love to meet you someday, so I will see you when and if I get there!

      Yes, we take our golf cart all the time. We even take it when we need an entire week's worth of groceries. They sell a large bag that takes the place of your golf clubs and you can actually bring a big load home.
