Gated communities does not necessarily mean there is an actual gate. In many cases, there is an empty guard house. Traffic comes and goes freely. Yes, it would be possible. Also, vehicles parked on yards. Ah yes, owning an “estate” in a “gated” community.
Yeah some dumb asses wanted to get rid of the gate guards (from midnight to 6am) to save 20K a year for 24 hour a day at South gate....We have 3 entries all are occupied. This was after they said we had a million in the bank reserve. I got up and explained why we must keep all 3 gated and was able to get it voted down so that all 3 gates continue to have guards 24/7. It was so ridiculous. The reason my family is in a gated community is to have that person their asking questions on vehicles trying to come through.
