Sumter County, because of the growth of The Villages, ranks sixth in the nation and No. 1 in Florida in new home construction for the decade 2010-20, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The number of homes in Sumter grew during the 10-year period from about 53,000 to about 75,300, an increase of 42%. The lofty ranking comes as no surprise to Sumter County Property Appraiser Joey Hooten, who witnesses the housing growth on a daily basis. “Sumter County is the envy of the state,” Hooten said. “It’s because we have sustained growth no matter what the economy throws at us.” That can be attributed to the demand for the lifestyle available in The Villages, Hooten said. “No one has done what we’ve been able to do in this county over the last 10 years,” he said. “It’s nothing short of amazing. And it’s all about what’s being offered in The Villages.” It doesn’t appear to be slowing down any time soon either, Hooten added. “People are moving here more than ever,” he said.
