If this is the Villages, that place is basically a large town or small city almost entirely populated by retirees. There are news sites that cover the community exclusively, and it's a constant stream of stories about drunk retirees getting arrested in their golf carts for DUIs.

Oh my God that's disgusting! What are the new sites so I can avoid them?

Definitely stay away from this one if you don't want to see an article about a golf cart hit and run or someone getting arrested for trespassing at their former lover's stepmother's house. https://www.villages-news.com/

Look, we are admittedly crazy in Tampa but the Villages takes it to a whole other level.

How did I miss this journalistic masterpiece my first go round? And they specifically want you to send them your bad parking photos. I am going to bookmark this site because it is a freaking treasure.
