There is an HOA community that has some real housing deals. We were urged to look there. They also had the highest crime rate.The HOA controlled how peoples yards looked but did nothing about the kids roaming the streets at night. Guess whose kids they were. :-)
Around here we have had a few got built and they all look the same.
Some made by KB homes is where the dreggs of society seem t live and then there are others like palencia where is it one of the snottiest nosed areas I have ever seen .
I’ve just built an addition to my house, rearranged the driveway to now fit many cars or a boat and a motor home cars and built a fence.
If I had tried to do that in one of those HOA I would have been told no...
Fortunately I live in a tiny town (under 300 people) where people take care of our own issues neighbor to neighbor. It helps that everybody around here has an independant streak which leads to keeping quiet about things like construction.
Over the summer I tore down my old porch and built a 10 by 16 greenhouse in its place with no permits simply because the neighbors aren’t going to complain about doing something that makes the place look better. Putting in a dock is supposed to require a whole string of permits but nobody ever gets any.

not only that but I could never live with a house that close to mine that I could shake my neighbors hands form the bedroom window.
