I tend to create a lot of new saves (generally one per day (date)) looking for something interesting, many of them contain villages near the start (but some don't) so.... Without further ado here is the growing list of seeds that I found interesting and why... (I enter the dates as my seed number exactly as shown below, you can of course go into the game with that and then type /seed to get the actual seed number, but since it's basically the same in game I leave it as what I write below)
10/17/2015 - SPAWN IN AN UNDERWATER CAVERN, GO TO THE SURFACE TURN AROUND AND FIND A DESERT VILLAGE WITH A TEMPLE NEAR THE CENTER OF THE VILLAGE AREA.
Game: 1.8 DEFAULT WORLD TYPE.
10/27/2015 - Spawn only a few steps away from a desert temple. Somewhat okay loot, better than I've found in the past, usually I get rotten flesh, and bones, but little beyond that. In here there was horse armor, gold and iron bars and some diamonds.
There is also a village nearby, see image below for coordinates.
The below two happened apparently due to mods installed. Thanks to BigAlanM for bringing that to my attention.
10/23/2015 - SHORTLY AROUND SPAWN YOU FIND A LARGE CITY, BUT BECAUSE THIS IS ON AMPLIFIED THE VILLAGE IS DISJOINED AND YOU'LL HAVE TO JOIN IT ALL UP WITH PATHS. DON'T FORGET TO LOOK "UP" TO FIND THE REST OF THE VILLAGE AND THEN WHEN YOU ARE UP THERE, GO FORWARD AND THEN LOOK LEFT OFF THE CLIFF TO FIND A LOT MORE BUILDINGS, OF COURSE ALL DISJOINED DUE TO THE AMPLIFIED TERRAIN. TRY IT ON REGULAR TERRAIN TOO.
Game: 1.8 AMPLIFIED WORLD TYPE
10/24/2015 - WATER WORLD VILLAGE, A VILLAGE WITH ABOUT 12 VILLAGERS THAT HAVE SETUP A VILLAGE ON THE OCEAN. YOU'LL NEED TO FINISH BUILDING THE WALKWAYS BETWEEN BUILDINGS AND FENCE IT ALL IN AS THEY TEND TO JUMP INTO THE WATER AND DIE.
I'm currently playing this world and enjoying it immensely, I've gotten all the wood from nearby land masses and built all the pathways and fences, and have just started to excavate downwards inside one of the buildings to start mining in search of the so-far elusive diamonds.
Game: 1.8 DEFAULT WORLD TYPE
The seeds are the dates, i.e. Type in 10/24/2015 for the world seed (sorry for the caps but I copied and pasted from a file that I keep of interesting seeds on my own computer AND we use only CAPS when at work as it's easier for us to read).
Here are the maps and numeric seeds for the above worlds. In order.
"10/17/2015" = "567565115" I didn't spawn below ground level. I don't believe it's possible in vanilla Minecraft except in an open ravine.
"10/23/2015" = "1340552192" I found no village ("city") near spawn. Probably created due to one of your installed mods.
"10/24/2015" = "1369181343" The ocean village doesn't exist in a vanilla Minecraft world. I created this world and teleported to the coordinates shown and the island in the image is exactly the same as I found but no village. The village is an artifact of your installed mods.

If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.
Wow I'm quite sad, I never installed any mods that specifically said that they would alter where villages will appear or that add extra villages to the game but indeed I ran my own last two seeds through vanilla and there were no villages where I saw them with all mods installed.
At least the desert village is there with the temple near the center in vanilla game, although indeed I ended up spawning under water in the river instead of in the ravine.
Okay, before posting now I'm trying my seeds in Vanilla 1.8...
10/27/2015 - Spawn only a few steps away from a desert temple. Somewhat okay loot, better than I've found in the past, usually I get rotten flesh, and bones, but little beyond that. In here there was horse armor, gold and iron bars and some diamonds.
The seed "10/27/2015" or numerically "1455068796" produces this map:
The village SE of spawn has a church, library, and two fields.
The Savanna village to the west of spawn has a blacksmith, library, and 6 fields.
