I believe Vox had said that there were hundreds in one *neighborhood.
That's an exaggeration.


No. Technically, someone else said that there were hundreds in a community.
I pointed out that there were over 800 in Montgomery county. Maybe that
county is huge and 800 HOAs are so dispersed that they wouldn't be very
close to each other. I don't know. I doubt that there are 800 towns in my
county. I would suspect that the 800 associations are clustered and not
evenly dispersed. There are over 40 million people living in about 200,000
communities governed by HOAs. From that standpoint, Montgomery County, MD
would have a disproportionate number of these communities as compared with
the nation as a whole.


Interesting that your method of argument is to tell a lie, have the lie
corrected, then tell it again. I've noticed a lot of rightwingers do that
-- just keep repeating the same lie over & over & over no matter how often
it is corrected.

But once mo That list you gave included HOAs in Virginia, Washington
DC, & Maryland. It included civic associations that are not HOAs, & it
included single-building condominium HOAs that are not neigbhoroods.

If such a density of HOA neighborhoods exists in a single community
anywhere in the United States, you came nowhere close to proving it by
repeating your whopper here.

But if it IS true somewhere, that would be absolutely horrifying to any
decent human being, pleasing though it may be for you.
