What people like about the Village of La Zamora
La Zamora is in the northern Lake County Spanish-naming cluster alongside Del Mar, El Cortez, and Valle Verde — a section of The Villages built in the 1980s and 1990s with a structural no-bond cost advantage. The Lady Lake/Lake County section sits outside the numbered CDD system — no bond assessment has ever existed here. Chula Vista Recreation Center is in this section of the corridor, serving the Del Mar / El Cortez / La Zamora cluster with pool, social, and recreational programming. Spanish Springs Town Square is the nearest entertainment anchor with free nightly live entertainment.
Lake County's effective property tax rate of approximately 1.6% is the highest of the three counties spanning The Villages — roughly 1.5 to 1.6 times the Sumter County rate that applies to most Villages properties. For buyers comparing La Zamora against central-area Sumter villages, the cost picture differs: La Zamora carries no annual bond payment — no CDD bond has ever existed in this section — while carrying a higher property tax. The total annual carrying cost of a northern Lake County address can be comparable to or lower than a mid-development Sumter village with an active bond. Always verify the tax amount and amenity fee together for any home you are comparing.
