Don't live in an HOA.
I know there are a few good HOA's but overall I hear nothing but complaints about them. Read the contracts. If you don't like it, you don't have to buy. When people stop signing the contracts, they will eventually go away. I don't see many benefits that outweigh the negatives in an HOA. So maybe they mow your lawn or shovel your sidewalk? Big whoop... find a neighborhood kid to do it for $10 a week. What's wrong with an old-fashioned neighborhood with houses that don't all look the same?

Yep I totally agree...there are plently of those old-fashioned neighborhoods still in existence that are pretty decent with pretty large lots. Just have to know how to find them and convince the "other-half", pending if there is one, that amateur radio is an important part of your life and that buying in a gated community isn't all that it's cracked up to be.
