I really do love this- these people all worked so hard for their kids, their companies, etc… and now they are just doing what they want to do for themselves. God bless them

I’m 55 and my wife is 52. We just spent a week in The Villages and we had a blast. It was sad to leave. We’re planning a Lifestyle visit this winter. We met Roseann, she was so helpful.

My husband and I watched videos of The Villages and we're sold! Never thought we would want to move to Florida, but this is so our style. Love it!!

This is by far the best video about The Villages, what’s funny is that it’s almost as if we’re programmed to say the same things regarding the number of clubs, golf courses etc…but truth be told, we’re constantly being updated on events going on around The Villages and we don’t always stay inside the bubble. The towns in central Florida have so much to offer and that’s what draws people from all over to move down here.👍👍

Terry you did a great job exploring and learning about The Villages. Thank you for your honest and positive presentation.

Hi Terry, This looks awesome! You did a very good Job showing us this! I live in Poincianna Florida for the winter! ( gated community) I know a neighbor that moved to the Villages from Wisconsin!😊

I’ve been going to the Villages twice a year for the last 20+ years to visit my folks on their birthdays…. What a blast, sooo much to do and see, the growth since they started that place is unbelievable. Lots of stories about the place and I think the guy from Indiana hit the nail on the head. I think a lot of those stories were started to discredit the place because of it’s explosive growth into the surrounding towns. The Cost of living is on the upper side (lots of money there) and it’s not cheap to live there. It’s beautifully maintained no matter where you go in the Villages. Nothing else like it, that I’m aware of!!!

I have seen countless videos on T.V, Your video is probably one of the best, Enjoyed all the interaction with all the Locals, Very informative, We have considered moving there. Wonder if you could do a video about OTOTW In Ocala.

I was told everything close down at 9pm and the restaurant served small amount of food. But during the day... it's fun!

Dear Barefoot Vlogger: *PLEASE do a LIFESTYLE VISIT and take us with you!* This was the BEST video so far of The Villages! SO FUN! Thank you.

Terry, this was so enjoyable and fun to watch. This place is a one-of-a-kind community. Every person you came across was so helpful and kind. It’s definitely a Disney World for seniors. It’s fun to see everybody so active, which is a big plus for your health. You are so funny to watch that I was in stitches LOL This is definitely going to be added to one of my favorite videos, which by the way, is a very long list because most of your videos are my favorites ha ha 😂 I also found the history on Mother Roy’s boarding house very interesting. Thank you for exploring and taking us into the communities and showing us all the different styles. That was absolutely fantastic! Bravo 👏

Thanks for a great presentation of The Villages. It truly is Disney World for Seniors. Check out the "original" town square next time you visit...Spanish Springs.... Lovely fountains and Spanish architecture.

Disappointed you didn't make it up to Spanish Springs & the Historic district, where it all began. Check out 64 minutes Through The Historic Side of The Villages. I'm 2nd gen Villager, loving it here.

Just discovered you on KZfaq. You are a hoot! So fun and informative. Will be binge watching your videos!!

LOVED this video!! I love all your content, Terry. Keep them coming!

I stumbled into The Villages back when a news article on TV was demonstrating a Trump Rally on golf cars. Next thing I know, I researched it and have been a frequent visitor, as I am not quite 'Villages-age' ready yet. My takeaway? The Villages is not a place where seniors go to die. It's a place where they go to LIVE their golden years happily.

Happy 4th July dear friends! You're living in a beautiful place and environment! Enjoy it and share it with us! Thanks for this video! Best wishes from a far-away Kazakhstan!Kazakhstan! I've been to Florida four times: once in Orlando and 3 times in Miami. And I'm still missing these awesome places. HOPEFULLY SOON I'LL BE THERE AGAIN❤❤❤

I first saw a vid on the Villages from Pete Sant--- so I started researching and found yours! I’ve been thinking of moving there from North TX! I just learned that a some of my lake friends live in the Villages! Going to schedule a lifestyle visit soon! Thanks so much

Sweet video dude! Heads up, your audio was mostly coming from right speaker. Thanks again for the tour!

Great video! You captured the vibe here very well!

❤very good editing in this video. Thanks

T, I had been on the fence about this, researched, now I’m more inclined to look. Thanks for doing this video. Enjoyed all the interviews. Great work, should do more informative videos like this! 😎😎😎

Haha. Just watched this episode the other day. One of my favorites. I heard you say Willoughby and thought I may be one of the few that get the reference. It is Willoughby for sure.

Terry, great video you really covered The Villages. There is a lot more to see there too. I was wondering where you got your backpack? It looks like it is the perfect day trip type of bag for men. Thanks

Hi Terry Wow the Village’s I never knew it was so big? I go to Poincianna / Solivita for the winter. Great job showing us this place! We had a neighbor up north from Wisconsin move there!😊

These are the vlogs that will push your KZfaq channel up 😊 keep up the good work brother! 🎉

hello from Philly! 💗

Hi there👋🏼 What a fun and informative video. Can’t wait to see where else you choose to explore. New subscriber here 🎉

First time watching one of your videos. I really enjoyed it. My husband and I are moving to The Villages next year, from Wisconsin. Can hardly wait!!

Good report.

Great video ! Thanks

Some of your best work ever. My bride of 38 years and I enjoyed this one. Terry, I can tell you are beginning to really enjoy your channel. It shows. And as you say.. "Onward & Upward" Ed

Hi Terry! Great vídeo! You bring the good energy of this community for us. Thank you for sharing this amazing place. Have a happy weekend!

This is the best report I have seen so far. It beats everyone else's.

Great job on your visit...the place looks great but lack of diversity!

Awesome video! Learned alot.

Hey man great video I just bought a house here been here 90 days your vid was awesome "what you see I'd what you get" how true next time you head this way come by the villages historic section where it all started that's where I live

I was hoping you’d stay there long enough to catch the great musical groups that play in the square in the evenings. But great video😊

Just watched this epic!! Great look into The Villages we had no idea how vast and sprawling it actually is. Great job Barefoot a man on the move. Onward and Upward my friend!! 🎉

A video of the true TV life. Thanks

Hey Terry, we loved this video and it’s fun to see how easy you communicate and fit in with anyone. We haven’t watched for a while due to some issues but we’re so happy to see you and this video. We’d love to live there but we didn’t see any diversity and saw online there’s a lot of contention during political times. Your statement said it best Re the Turtle and the alligator, why can’t we all get along up here like they were doing in your video. You said it bud! ❤

I'm only 42 and already planning for my future move :) lol

Nice job Terry, hey what’s the brand name of those sharp sun glasses? Thx.

Love living here! Thanks for featuring The Villages! Where was your favorite part?

You should come to Perry Fl where Hurricane Idalia hit and do a vlog. This is where I live and it was pretty bad

Thank you for this video Terry! Queens girl here, My husband and I are going to visit next month. We were a little hesitant because we would love to find a place closer to the beaches. I guess you dont beed the beaches with so much to do there. After visiting, would you live there? Thank you again and have a great day!

That huge number of closely parked golf carts were those for sale and for rent. The company's show room was adjacent. Free professional musical entertainment at each square - live bands/vocalist/DJ each evening unless severe weather cancels. Open to all. By the way, the historic signs are just for fun and atmosphere.

Awesome video... Checking all questions I had but 1.. Is there a hockey 🏒 rink in the villages for us Canadians lol

Great video, it was nice to see what the Villages have to offer. It does seem like Disney for adults.

I’m an MD . In the Village’s area . It’s true. Of course they’ll deny it.

What a great video, thanks Terry, this place looks amazing. I will be sharing this video as well

The average age in the Villages is 67 (very active) I"'ll assume that biking, tennis, and pickleball were not part of your narrative. Go to any court at 8:AM December thru April and you will witness quality play.

This was a fun trip to see the place. I have heard so much about it. It looks like everyone is having fun!

I wonder what's the ratio of people who live in The Villages, that don't play golf at all, to those who do?

I'll be down soon. Hope to see you there!

Happy 4Th July 🇺🇸Terry,I love your videos ,this one put a smile on my face,great interviews ,love from NY. 🌴

37:23 Damn right!

Great video. You always do a nice job interacting with people. Next time stick around for the live music and dancing at the squares. It's a good time.

Questions??? So, if you move in are like all the gyms, recreation facilities, pools still free if you don't have an hoa or bond?

A place is as good as one makes it. I can see myself having fun there.

Love your videos! We vacation in The Villages from the UK 🇬🇧

What that lady said at the pickle ball court "take your flippin flat a%*! 😂 Terry you rockin with these vlogs and lives! Future merch purchases to come. I luv advertising for u beautiful channel❤❤❤

Omg you had me cracking up about the dental office where you can go take care of your dentures. I live in a 55 older community but there’s no comparison to the amount of activity this place has.

Terry I’m dyin… Willoughby!!! We always sat that at home!!! Actually laughing out loud. Great video! Heard so much about this area. At 58 I guess we can go?…. Just not ready yet!!! Lol. 😮

I wonder if taxes go towards the Villages itself.

Very nice. I have a friend who lives there. We've been to the Spanish Springs section a couple of times. It's another world.

Is it true this is a swingers community? Everyone says this. ; - )

Here's what mystifies me. The Villages has a large contingent of conservative Republican homeowners who claim to value personal liberty and freedom, yet they will live in a place that tells you that you cannot have a FENCE in your yard, or chachkis on your lawn (Does the chacki restriction include copper wind scupltures? Those are really big up here in Missouri), and requires approval for what color you can paint your house? Why would someone tolerate that? I'm a centrist Democrat, and I would never tolerate it. I landscape in in some of the most exclusive areas in Kasnas City... homes that are over 1 million dollars, and they have far less deed restrictions. Yet one thing that never seems to be required in deed restrictions that I feel NEEDS to be there, is that I think all utility boxes should be masked with some type of plant material. I think there is nothing tackier that seeing utility boxes in the yard.

Great info. You have great show.Thank you

Once I hit the double nickel, I'd seriously consider moving there! Excellent video BFV!!

What a great overview of the place. I can hardly wait to get old!😅

Are there any handball courts?

Swingin the golf clubs.

Good job. I will share this. An outsiders view and you ended up being impressed so that's a good thing.

The Villages is a 365-day cruise ship (on land). I can’t wait to be 55 and move there.

It seems like a angle person would feel odd. I know they have single clubs there - but the couple thing is so ingrained there, not sure I would like it.🤷🏽

Disney for Seniors? Maybe, but I think of Disney as a great place to VISIT not to LIVE in. The Villages is ok if that is your thing but to me being a seasonal resident there would be the way to do it. I would never consider The Villages though if under age 65. I do not get wanting to live there in your 50's or even early 60s.

Great video of The Villages ❤

Good job Terry. Love it wish it was closer to the beach!

I would never leave Michigan to move to The Villages! Just not my style at all and has no appeal to me. Just looks so overcrowded and not very peaceful or tranquil. But more than that I will never be able to retire at all since I don't have the finances to do so. I am almost 64 and I'm a full time realtor just working to pay the next bill. So whatever it is that these people get to do in the last part of their lives is something that I will never even has an an option since I still have at least 20 or more years of full-time work ahead of me if I want to be able to eat and pay my bills.

An introverts nightmare...

Like most of America, no diversity in the Villages. I haven’t seen a black person yet.

My wife's friend said its awful being a single women and over 60

Sounds like an HOA on steroids. I am anti social boomer, this would NOT work for me. I suspect there is a secret Karen/Ken patrol if your rocks are not lined up in your driveway properly! 😅

Thanks for this fun video!

Love this heard a lot about The Villages

Thanks Terry

Rosane was the game changer on this video.

Great video!!! You are selling The Villages!!!❤

I think that people dedicated to the swinger lifestyle would go to the Caliente Resort near Tampa.

I'd never move there

Awesome awesome video

Terry WOW the Villages are amazing. I think I would have a problem with all that happiness. I live in an area where everyone bitches about everything.

Eden for the unsophisticated.

How did you get all those folks to allow you to play different games with them ??

I really enjoyed watching this looks like a really fun full action place. The only thing I would miss the beach!!!

I would love to live there But I’m single and what I get to live on I don’t think I could afford it I’m selling my house and I will get a good amount for it but I bet those homes are expensive

Great video! I really enjoyed it & all the nice people you featured. Wonderful!

Definitely going to retire in Florida… I’ve got to check this out but going to be hard to compete with Tampa tho !!! Thanks for the vid Barefoot always enjoy them!!!!

HOA cost?
