What people like about the Village of De Allende
Homes in De Allende were built 1998–2001, plus one 2005 home. Its neighbors include Alhambra, Santiago, Santo Domingo, and Tierra Del Sol. The financial profile is the main draw: District 1, which serves De Allende, reports no outstanding bond assessments for any unit — the original infrastructure bonds have been paid off. Sumter County's standard ~1.0% effective tax rate applies, without the Marion County premium that villages like Chatham and Briar Meadow carry in the northern band. For buyers who specifically want to avoid the annual bond payment, De Allende has no outstanding bond cost at all.
The village sits in Community Development District 1, sharing infrastructure with De La Vista, Hacienda, Palo Alto, Rio Grande, Rio Ponderosa, Rio Ranchero, and Tierra Del Sol. That puts established golf close by: De La Vista Executive Golf Course — a par-29 course that opened in 1995 — serves this corridor and is included with the amenity fee for walking play, and Tierra Del Sol Country Club adds championship golf one village over, with a recreation center, restaurant, and postal station at the same complex.
The landscape here reflects its age in a way newer villages are still building toward: mature trees, settled home exteriors, and an established feel. Spanish Springs Town Square — the original town square (1994), Spanish colonial-themed — is the nearest entertainment hub, within golf cart range, with free nightly live entertainment.
