Living in or near The Villages Florida is by far the best active retirement destination in Florida. The Villages Florida is not a gated retirement community, but rather 14 special purpose municipalities called Community Development Districts (CDDs). The Villages is the largest self-contained active lifestyle community in the world. While they are unincorporated political subdivisions, they are municipalities nonetheless.
The Villages can overwhelm first-time visitors, causing them to make a quick, emotional home purchase without seriously considering how they will use the abundance of recreation and commercial amenities, the overall cost and utility of their purchase, and the available nearby, more economical alternatives that may provide them just what they expect in retirement. Do you really need or want to pay for 85 swimming pools and over 2,000 social clubs? Remember The Villages' Champion Golf and Country Clubs are open to the public.
Did you know that the average Villager doesn't even play golf, use any of the recreation facilities, or any of the social clubs? Then, what is it about The Villages that appeals to the average Villager? It's the abundance of commercial amenities right at their fingertips. The very same amenities are available to the residents of contiguous Spruce Creek South.
The Spruce Creek South resident can access and enjoy The Villages Championship Golf and Country Clubs, The Villages Regional Hospital and Medical Facilities, and the abundance of entertainment, shopping, and dining venues, and much more. Moreover, the Spruce Creek South resident can live the lifestyle of the average Villager in a comparable home in Spruce Creek South for substantially less money.
Spruce Creek South is a gate-restricted, active lifestyle adult community contiguous with The Villages where the median home price about $200,000. Spruce Creek South offers its 55 and older residents a Championship Golf and Country Club, and an array of other recreation and social amenities common to a first-class active lifestyle community. Moreover, there are no Bond or CDD Assessments. The Home Owners Association (HOA) Fee is $144 per month and includes an exercise facility, a heated community pool, trash collection, and 24/7 gated security.
