Not in a trailer park. In a moderately upscale neighborhood, $300k houses. Are above ground pools trashy or not? What say you?

If you have to ask, the answer is yes.

If finished out with a nice deck setup they're fine. Hell, I've seen some in ground pools that are trashier.

We had one at our old house. Built a deck around it.

At our current house, we did a semi inground. 1/4 the cost of inground and can be buried. We have a concrete stamped deck around half of it. Walk right up and jump in.

$300k is moderately upscale?

The answer to your original question is yes, by the way

(Edit: I’m surprised at the amount of downvotes considering the OT is comprised of nothing but the 1%. Unless the downvotes are just a personal attack on me as a poster. That, I totally get!)

Above ground pool = trashy

Above ground pool (buried) = somehow trashier

As long as you keep it up I don’t see an issue. If it looks like trailer trash setup then yeah - trashy. Btw… you could save a ton of money with a viskween liner in the bed of your pickup and just add water when needed. Zero maintenance

1) Cigarettes
2) Neck Tats
3) Trailers
4) Above ground pools


Only thing acceptable above ground is a hot tub like they have at some of the cabins in Tennessee

Trashy, but, if you don't want to deal with in ground issues and want to disassemble it in a few years, do it. Just hide it from the neighbors.

Trashy as frick. The only thing that makes it trashier is if you build a big deck and wall around it.

Who gives a frick? You want a pool and can’t afford or in a place in life to get a real pool, I say get that above ground fricker and enjoy the shite out of it. Summer is hot as frick and an above ground pool is better than no pool.

One of the worst things that has happened to white people is trying to not be trashy. Classy people are generally cünts anyways.

Had one for years. Eventually the kids grew up and have left or were not interested in swimming.

It took a day to take down and clean up.

No hole in the yard to fill in. Done.

Above ground pools are awesome. Sometimes you can find one for free as long as you go take it down.

Have yourself a few years of swimming at home and of you don't want it anymore someone will come take it down and take it away for free.

I did specify moderately upscale.

Not all of us are fortunate enough to live in the garden spot that is Louisiana. In suburban ohio we have to make do with affordable housing, low crime, good schools and honest, conservative elected officials.
