Leisureville by Andrew Blechman


So you’re thinking about retiring to an inexpensive community where it’s warm all year-round and a typical day may consist of playing a round of golf, pursuing a woodworking hobby and taking a nap. You may want to consider The Villages, a retirement community located in Florida. However, you may want to read this book before making a purchase.

Mr. Blechman gives an eye-opening account of what life is like in this retirement community. The fact that the author is a bit away from being eligible to live here may seem to be a bit biased but he still presents the pros and cons of living in this type of retirement haven.

This is an interesting story about a community that attracts many retirees due to its variety of homes and recreational activities, including many golf courses.

Worth the read, especially if retirement is just around the corner.

Ladybookbug!
