The Village of Linden is a newer southern village within the expansive master-planned 55+ community of The Villages in Sumter County, Florida (ZIP 32163). It operates under the broader governance of The Villages Community Development Districts (CDDs) rather than a standalone traditional HOA. The CDD manages common areas, infrastructure, and standards for the village and surrounding areas.
The Villages does not have a traditional HOA fee. Instead, residents pay a contractual amenity fee (prevailing rate approximately $204 per month as of 2026 for new/resale buyers, subject to CPI adjustments tied to individual deed restrictions) billed through utility statements. CDD bond assessments and maintenance assessments vary by property and district (e.g., District 12 references); specific amounts for Village of Linden homes are unavailable in public summaries and must be verified per address via district records. Transfer fees, capital contributions, and special assessments information is unavailable.
Specific architectural guidelines, exterior modification approvals, landscaping standards, parking, pet policies, rental restrictions, noise rules, trash collection, and community standards for Village of Linden are governed by deed restrictions and CDD policies applicable across The Villages. Detailed governing documents and enforcement procedures for this specific village are unavailable in public sources.
Riverbend Recreation Center serves as the primary village amenity with clubhouse facilities, resort-style pool, tennis/pickleball courts, bocce, shuffleboard, sand volleyball, outdoor exercise equipment, gathering rooms, fire pit, and adjacent dog park. Additional access to The Villages-wide recreation centers, executive golf courses (walking play included with amenity fee), pools, trails, and parks is provided. Specific capacity, hours beyond general rec center operations, and dedicated contact details beyond the main rec center are unavailable.
Residents enjoy an active, social 55+ lifestyle centered on recreation, golf cart connectivity, and community events within a master-planned environment emphasizing outdoor living, clubs, and entertainment at nearby town squares.
