I recommend against neighborhoods with associations, particularly if the municipality already has adequate zoning laws. Too many times I have seen the association use its power to harass a member until he or she is forced to move. I have also seen people nearly lose their homes because of disputed fees/assessments. I think they should be outlawed.

It's really something when one has to get permission to have a lawn or to paint the house a different color. Conformity can go a bit too far.

One of my favorites was a neighborhood that charged $10 per day if you had guest vehicle(s) in your driveway and not in the garage after 10 PM.
