    I didn’t watch, but the video is about The Villages retirement community in Florida. It’s a peculiar place, I’ve been there once before. No sidewalks, lots of golf carts and roundabouts. And also not to undersell the golf carts aspect, people will get carts that are full on small EV transport with air conditioning:

    Or just tricked out

    Why golf carts? If I recall correctly (did not verify, so take with a grain of salt) that Florida law is pretty lax on drivers license requirements for golf carts within certain circumstances (over 18, speed limits at 20mph or under, public vs private roads, etc). Which I assume is a nice loophole for retirees avoid those pesky drivers exams in their dotage.
