We moved here in 2005. Overall we love it, but there are things to consider. One is that you are likely to lose money if you want to leave. What happens is that people get too old to be here or they die and the kids can’t afford the monthly fees, so they sell cheap. That affects resale prices. They do maintain your yard, but it is minimal. If you are fussy, you won’t like it. In the same vein, these are manufactured homes. Fussy people won’t like the fit and finish quality. Some areas pack the homes in very closely. On the plus side: no cliquey home owners association. Beautiful clubhouse and a well run social department keeps things hopping. Regular events, clubs, dances etc. are free or low cost. Great gym, three swimming pools, wonderful grounds to walk. As I said, we love it but it is not for everyone.
