I know my neighbors it's quiet and no jerk is coming on my property and telling me what to do.
We have enough rules spewed out by government endlessly.

Once in a blue moon you'll see a HOA that makes sense - limited power, etc. For example, one of my coworkers and almost neighbors is in a HOA... $50/mo fees, used to maintain the shared dirt/limerock road leading back to the 15 houses. Extra funds are collected and saved to have the road paved eventually.. which should be in about 10 years.
