They charge you money but don't actually do anything for the community.

They charge you money but don't actually do anything for the community. We lived there about 3 years. There is a dock in the neighborhood. So, as an example, the dock had massive holes in it that a child or small dog could fall into. We asked the HOA to fix them multiple times but they never did. They randomly drive around and issue fines for things like your trash can is showing. But then when you try to call them about it, they don't pick up or call you back. They won't email back either. So I guess the good thing is, even if they issue a fine, they never come to actually collect the money. The members of the board don't actually live in the neighborhood. They live nearly two hours south in a completely different city. So, they give zero f*cks about the neighborhood and the people actually living there.
