    Well, they intentionally remove themselves from the broader community because they think they’re better than the “unwashed masses” for one. They also tend to fearmonger about violent crime and generally vote for fascists. They tend to be class traitors in general

    There’s a very large gated community right beside my apartment, that’s in between me and the lake I live near. If I could walk thru the gated comm, I could reach the lake in ~15min. Instead I have to go around which is more than twice as far with lots of up-hill.

        I dont care for subdivisions. A bunch of cookie-cutter houses packed too closely, isolated from the rest of their town. Overpriced houses with HOAs deciding how you handle your own property.

        I find nothing about them appealing.

    When they’re not in the way of anything i don’t care, but there is one near me that halfs the distance i can walk or bicycle without going on the highway and that is bullshit

    I’m not sure why people hate them. I guess the other comments kind of explains it, the reality is I don’t hate them. I don’t have an issue with them. If you want to live in a gated community ok fine go live in a gated community. no skin off my nose.
