"This Is What I Have To Look At After Paying My Hoa Every Month"

"I am aware, first world problems right, but I can’t even have a chair outside of my door at this place and the HOA let’s this slide out of all things. They recently re- painted the building and the railings. I thought you guys would get a kick out of my suffering."
Not all are bad. Our hoa fees cover maintenance of the common areas and neighborhood pool. They pretty much leave us alone. I see things every day that are in violation of our bylaws and no one cares. I’m guilty of a few myself.
The only letter I ever got was when I left my boat on the street for 2 weeks.
I take enough order from boss, wife , government officials definitely do not need some one telling how to live and maintain my house
Seriously: Why do people live in HOA communities where people get harrassed on a legal basis? It seems quite bizarre to me.
