WHY SHOULD YOU VISIT THE VILLAGES


SUMMARY OF THE VILLAGES

The Villages, a planned retirement community, lies about an hour’s drive
northwest of Orlando in the lake-studded landscape of central Florida. Imagine
one of its community members—a Villager—enjoying a stroll on a warm day in Lake
Sumter Landing, one of three distinct downtowns that cater to approximately
90,000 residents. This average Villager—at least fifty-five years old, not from
Florida, relatively affluent, white, and likely female—stops for an ice cream
cone at the Häagen Dazs store just off the central square. A historical plaque,
common on most of The Villages’ storefronts, states that Oscar’s Bait & Tackle
once occupied the building. The Villager learns from the plaque’s author, the
Lake Sumter Landing Historical Preservation League, that Oscar Feliu purchased
the “small warehouse building on the waterfront” in 1906 and ran a “successful
fishing equipment and bait shop for the many sportsmen who came to Lake Sumter
to enjoy the outstanding fishing available in the area.” There’s more to the
story next door. The old telegraph office, now a radio station, displays what
appears to be an early-twentieth-century photograph of townsfolk— well-dressed
men, women, and children—gathered outside Oscar’s to glimpse record-setting fish
caught in the lake.

The Villages is a census-designated place in Sumter County, Florida, United
States. It shares its name with a broader master-planned age-restricted
community that spreads into portions of Lake and Marion counties. Wikipedia
