If you're wondering you might want to go rent at The Villages for a few months. I came down 3 different times to visit the area before choosing. I then chose The Villages. We rented a home for 3 months while looking for 'last home". Actually living there showed us that this was not for us. We're both active, with health care background. I run, and still do, with a group in The Villages. Old miserable people in golf carts yell obscenities and complaints to the running group as they go around us. The Villages is akin to a city of miserable people who act as if they are above the rest. And they're all old. Yes, it's like a resort, beautiful, things to do-it glosses over the emptiness. We looked at quite a few 55 places. We chose Del Webb, not that its the best, but it's better than The Villages. At least for us. These 55 places are pretty similar. The other place is bigger and are 'selling a lifestyle' they claim. If you already have a life and your style- try Del Webb, or another!
It's so peaceful here and Spruce Creek has any activities In addition, we can still take advantage of many Village activities and entertainment!
Most simple reason my parents chose was spruce Creek and DW spruce Creek are private roads unlike the Villages have mostly public, county and state roads plus house costs weren't as expensive but it's more in the...eye of the beholder I say! More businesses and Dr medical centers of course in the Villages but alot more traffic too lol
