direct correlation to being trashy AF. True or False?

I’m talking about the people who have soo much shite in their garage they can’t use it. So they park on the street.

So we have two cars and only a driveway that will fit one of the cars, where else would I park?
And some houses here don't have off street parking

One of my neighbors has 5 cars for two people. They park two on the street and they never move them.

seems like tough circumstance, but different than what I’m referring to.

These folks have a 2-3 car garage full of their useless garbage and 2-3 cars, so some park on the street.

Mine is about 175 ft long and the part past the house can park 2 cars wide. I have a 20k quote to replace it in my office right now

It's the equivalent of parking on the grass.

I can fit 6 cars in my driveway and 2 in the garage. Luckily I don't live in a trashy neighborhood b/c no one parks on the street in my neighborhood.

I have seen some borderline hoarder looking garages when the door is open though. These people just park in their driveways. I live in Dallas though and most of the older neighborhoods have large lots and wide, tree lined streets.

When I visit the parents in New Orleans I feel claustrophobic driving through most neighborhoods now. The houses are close together and close to the street and everyone parks on the street b/c most driveways are singlecar. Never noticed it growing up , but it looks like crap to me now.

I’m amazed at how many trashy people can afford decent homes then completely destroy them by not even be able to park in the garage because of all the junk and trash they ‘store’.

Luckily my HOA doesn’t allow street parking under any circumstances.

So we have a garage, and a one car driveway, my wife parks in the driveway and I park on the street. I often leave later than her and usually get home after her as well. If she parked in the garage we would be constantly rearranging cars to make it work, that doesn't make any sense at all...

Basically you have no idea what you are talking about

I have 2000 square feet of decked attic. My wife has it looking like the warehouse that they stored the lost ark in. Cant park but one car in the garage and she is looking at my shop now.

Live in Mid-City and many houses don't have driveways, much less garages so most of the people park on the street. Out of the dozen houses that make up my block, 5 of them are doubles, so lots of cars being parked.

I have a 75 ft. long driveway that I can park 5 cars if need be, but getting out the first in requires moving all others, and that is a PITA.

It’s not allowed per the CCR’s in our community. I think it’s a poor look for a neighborhood.

You poor people need to build up and put a parking garage on top of the house.
