Discover The Villages
The Villages, a master-planned, age-restricted community spanning Sumter, Marion and Lake counties, began in the 1960s, when Michigan businessman Harold Schwartz sold land in the area by mail order. A 1968 federal law banning mail-order real estate sales forced Schwartz and his partner, Al Tarrson, to stop.
More about The Villages
In the early 1970s they developed Orange Blossom Gardens, a mobile home park in northwestern Lake County, which had sold about 400 units by the early 1980s. In 1983 Schwartz bought out Tarrson and brought in his son, H. Gary Morse, who, inspired by retirement communities like Del Webb's Sun City, added golf courses and recreation centers and pursued nearby commercial development. The community was officially renamed The Villages in 1992 and had more than 8,000 residents by the early 1990s. From 2010 to 2019 it was the top-selling master-planned community in the United States, with 24,440 homes sold. Sources Wikipedia: The Villages, Florida
