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.
