Wow. I just have to say wow, I had no idea.
This was fascinating. Andrew Blechman's New England neighbors announce their decision to move to The Villages, Florida- an age-segregated gated, golf-cart community, and he visits them to research both the insane tax loopholes available for developers and corporations in Florida like the Chapter 190, which has allowed developments as large, resource-draining, and isolated as The Villages, Disneyworld, and Seaside to be formed independently of state government and oversight, and the people who move to places where children are, necessarily, outlaws.
Amazing, fun, surprisingly dirty (!), and just gripping, this was an awesome quick read.
