    This is a massive reason I completely avoid HOAs. I don’t want some busybodies deciding what I can and can’t do with my property, and I’m okay with my neighborhood being less uniform as a result.

      Some areas can be a lot worse than “less uniform”.

        The Redneck doing oil changes in his front yard is fully within his rights. Mind your own business.

          That’s also not what I’m referring to. I work in real estate so I’ve seen it all:

          • grass four feet tall
          • a dozen vehicles parked all over the lawn
          • fences fallen down and left on the ground
          • the entire property being used as a landfill/scrapyard
          • rodent infestations

            With the sole exception of the rodent infestation all of this falls under mind your own business. It ain’t your land stop thine bitching.

              Depends what’s in the landfill. Anything that rots is definitely the business of the rest of the neighborhood. But if it doesn’t smell, make noise, or gets blown ower property lines, then yes, it’s none but the owner’s business.

              The rodent infestation is a result of the other factors and general lack of cleanliness. Sure seems like my business.

                If things do get so bad that there is an active health and safety issue then contact the city or county.

                  They don’t care. The people who live in the community do.
