Situated between the towns of Ocala and Orlando, you will find two of
the nation's premier retirement communities. The Lady Lake area offers its residents
a peaceful environment, balanced with every amenity imaginable. Within five miles of
the town's center, residents can choose from seven premier golf courses, and an
additional nineteen in the surrounding communities. Popular recreational activities
in this area include tennis, softball, horseshoes, or aquatic activities at one of
the area's fourteen swimming pools. Like its neighbor, The Villages, Lady Lake
maintains one of the nation's lowest crime rates, a pedestrian lifestyle, and easy
access to both major metropolitan areas as well as Florida's most renowned theme
parks.
The Villages in Florida also offers resort-style living, with a temperate climate and
year-round sunshine. Located in beautiful Sumter County, The Villages offers one of
the most admirable retirement communities in America. Many residents here attest to
the fact that life at both of these communities is enriching, with free time spent
gathering with friends and family, taking advantage of the many amenities the area
has to offer.
The Villages currently has approximately 6,000 residents, whose median age is forty
two years old. Nearly thirty percent of locals here work in a professional or
managerial capacity. Approximately twenty seven percent work in the service
industry, while just over fifteen percent are employed in an administrative
capacity. The median household income here is around $52,000 per year.
Over eighty percent of the homes offered in The Villages are single-family detached
homes. Home ownership is a popular option for residents here, with approximately
eighty four percent of locals owning their own homes. The most popular style home
here is a three-bedroom model. Recent sales figures indicate that the average
price of a three bedroom single family home in The Villages is currently $143,500.
Buyers here will also find a home to suit literally any taste, all with a cadre of
panache and appeal. You may choose a previously owned home or villa, offering a
variety of floor plans and locations. As a top relocation spot, each of these
communities has continued to expand to accommodate new residents. This means that
buyers can also choose from never before lived in new construction homes as well.
And for those who are looking to truly express their distinctiveness and creativity,
you might just choose to build the home you have always dreamed of.
Two incredibly popular destinations for residents of both Lady Lake and The Villages
are turn-of-the century style village squares. Both Spanish Springs Town Square and
Lake Sumter Landing Market Square draw visitors and locals alike. These areas
provide a relaxing, visually appealing spot to simply take an afternoon stroll,
do some shopping at the many one-of-a-kind shops, or indulge in a leisurely meal.
As an additional bonus, there is free entertainment each and every night at the
gazebo. Many choose to bring a lawn chair and tap their toes to the music, while
others take to their feet to dance the night away.
Both communities are designed for absolute convenience. The result is an incredibly
close-knit community, where locals walk to the shops, or hop in a golf cart to
navigate the town. This is a community where neighbors know one another. Not only
do The Villages abound in charm, but it is also one of the safest communities in
which to live.
Residents here are able to participate in literally hundreds of organized
recreational programs throughout the community. Some choose to join in fitness
programs, while others choose to learn a new skill or hobby. But perhaps the most
popular amenity here are the free executive style golf courses. With Florida's
sunny days, golfers here can take to the links practically every day of the year!
The Villages and Lady Lake each offer residents simply the finest lifestyle
imaginable. This well manicured pedestrian region offers folks here a chance
to be active, as well as active in their community. A pleasant climate, absolute
convenience and a wealth of recreational activities mean that residents never want
for a thing.
