No one "spies" on you, and no one reports you to the HOA. This isn't Nazi Germany. The HOA drives around the area once or twice a week and notes anything out of order. In the past eight years I've been contacted twice, once about Christmas lights still being up and once about having my garbage can being out in the driveway on a Saturday (our garbage day is Wednesday). No fines, no issues, just a little note.

In return I live in a nice neighborhood that isn't a ghetto.
The place my brother lives in is different. When he first moved in he had only been in the house two days and the neighbors called the HOA and reported him for not having his yard mowed. He has several neighbors that walk around the neighborhood every night and report anything they think is a violation to the HOA.

I supposed it is like anything else. There are good and there are bad.
