I live in a community of nearly a 1,000 homes, was president of the HOA for several years, and have traveled every street in the community. If I were out on certain streets in this community at night as to where I could not see certain street signs, there would be streets I could not specify the name of those streets off the top of my head, even while there. I would have to see the street sign to name the street.

Welcome to the thread.

And, all those town homes look the same front and back.

I was the head of security for my gated community years ago and stopped by the security gate to see if all was well and the guard said the ambulance had come in and couldn’t find the house and they were going up and down streets tying to find it.

I was on my way to town at that time and went to Radio Shack and bought a police scanner. Put that at the gate along with a stack of maps of the roads and houses, so the guard could hear if an ambulance had been called, then mark a map and hand it to the ambulance driver when they came in, plus hand another marked map to police car when it came in.

I thought it was tragic am ambulance couldn’t find a person in need and I fixed that.

You have my condolences. I was HOA president for a while where I live (less than 100 homes). They finally forced me out because I refused to spend a single dime of HOA money on any of the big-ticket projects that the liberal members wanted. When I left, we had well over $100K in the fund. Two years later, we're broke, and dues just went up. Damn liberals sure do know how to spend other people's money.

I've lived in my neighborhood for over 15 years. I could not rattle off the name of the street to the west of my street if my life depended on it. The street to the east, I could, but only because I regularly tell people to come down it in order to get to my street.
