1+ acre lots and restrictions against it. No one is parking on the street thankfully


Same deal, see it occasionally for a few hours if somebody’s visiting, but that’s it.

Our HOA has a rule against it but some dude (a lawyer) who got in trouble challenged it because the streets belong to the city and not the HOA or some shite like that.

Now everyone does it, but on my street it’s pretty rare. Maybe a car a week is on the street overnight.

Easy to fix though, don't live in a neighborhood. Strange what sets people off.

cars have gotten bigger and people have way too much stuff so garages are extra rooms/storage

cars everywhere is just part of American life now in every facet

Street parking is a scourge on society.

Lot's of people park on the street in parts of our development, but it's a TND (Traditional Neighborhood Development) and is designed for it. We have curbs, sidewalks etc. We have a 3 car garage and a 3 car driveway (alley in back) but when alll the kids are in town typically one car will wind up on the curb.

My buddy just moved into a DSLD type development and it’s insane. Tiny driveways that can barely fit two cars. Then cars parked up and down the street. It seems like a nightmare.

shite I live in a very nice neighborhood and the HOA states no parking in the streets but let's just say there are alot of teenagers and college kids still living at home and they park in the street. Personally I have no problem with it because it seems to slow people down in the neighborhood. Just my .02

We’ve got an extra vehicle (‘02 F150 before y’all come at me) and I’m bad about leaving it on the street for a few days at a time when I have to move it out of the driveway for whatever reason.

We have a pretty large frontage (wide 1+ acre lot) and in a cul-de-sec (I park in the tangent section and not in the circle).

It really doesn’t seem like a big of a deal to me because of the lack of traffic (just 3-4 houses) but I could see it being an annoyance. Probably should stop…

It's the biggest fricking bull shite of all time. I'm with OP on this one.

Whenever I visit my parents, the fricking POS neighbors across the street have a 2 car garage, and a driveway that fits 4-5 cars, yet the couple STILL parks both of their cars on the street all the time. Obviously making it extremely difficult backing out of my parent's driveways. I get so tempted to slash their tires and key their cars every time I'm there.

This. The amount of shite that people amass nowadays is absurd.
