It used to be that these gated communities were home only to super-rich Americans but now they’re appearing across the globe and are shaping new residences of the future. Over in Marseille, security-conscious real estate owners have petitioned the City Council to erect barriers and close off entire neighborhoods. The first gated community has opened in Sofia, Bulgaria. But as more and more people take refuge behind walls, will the remaining public space be turned into a giant ghetto? Personally, I think it sounds horrible living in a place everyone is generally a ..well, fill in the blank yourself.

I live in a secured apartment complex two blocks away from ASU, I had a battery stolen from my motorcycle and in the three years I've lived here there there has been five homeless people that some how found their way to live in the stair well without getting caught. It has been power washed a few times but still not as clean as when first started. As a person who has been without a home ( not homeless) I never disrespected someone's property or stolen/ robbed them. I believe that if you work hard, are smart with your money, and respect those who deserve it, then you deserve everything that you've worked for!!

Spend 6 million on a house , then you've got people driving around telling you how you have to maintain it or what you get to do with your 6 million dollar purchase . If you got children under 14 , they're trapped in their home because they can't leave their own property unescorted. Born in a bubble , raised in a bubble , then live in a bubble .

Sounds like heaven! What, pray, was the downside, if any?

I’ve been very fortunate in my life. Although I didn’t live in a gated community, for many years I lived in an upscale, suburban neighborhood. I was a member of the local country club and we did have a private community pool. Life was much like you see here. We were in segregated bliss. As the years passed, it became suffocating. When you spend so much time around the same people day after day, the dynamics get strange. Jealousies, power games, ego battles, just to name a few. You begin to realize you’re living in a bubble. We had assistants do everything for us. Cook, shop, wash the car, laundry, clean and lots more. This is a subculture of people who get so comfortable being catered to and waited on, they lose the ability to live in the real world. They don’t know how to interact socially outside their insulated circle. We sold our home and left 5 years ago. We moved out to a medium sized city here in Texas. We wonder what took us so long! Life here is much, much better. We’ll never return to our old lives.

There are some obvious things to appreciate when living within a gated community. I'm starting to see that the positives can also be negatives. For instance, if your only friends are other rich people, what happens if that friend loses their wealth? A better label would be 'activity partner', given that it is very contingent on maintaining said activities. A gated community ensures that everyone within it thinks and acts the same way. You may lose your ability to empathize and understand others who don't live the life that you do. You become closeminded and as luxury becomes your normal, I'm sure that your perception of normal people becomes unappealing altogether.

As it relates to everything else, to each his/her own. You have every right to choose what kind of community you want to take up residence where there are other like minded individuals. I have owned in a couple of homes in HOA, non gated, communities and and from personal experience, it is not the best for me. I specifically sought out non HOA homes in very small (7-20 homes) communities and own two that are not on top of each other. I live in one and my daughter lives in the other. I could care less what color the neighbors paint their homes, what kind of blinds they have, etc. We have code enforcement for serious violations and that department is already paid for via property taxes so there's nothing else to pay for. And, yes, they will promptly come out and make contact with violators and follow up/fine if needed.

I don't think there is a gated community here in Japan, except for condominiums. With the economy stagnant for nearly 30 years, there are no superriches to worry about being harmed by the have-nots. Living in a gated community feels flashy and positive like Dubai, but it's a dystopia and I don't like it.

In America, talented people do business freely and make ridiculous amounts of money. Because taxes and social security costs are low, successful people can make tremendous fortunes. The thirst for success has become the driving force of the American economy, and innovations that cannot be imitated by other countries occur one after another. Japan doesn't have the vitality of the United States, income tax is high, and half of a small amount of property is lost due to inheritance tax, so you can't leave a large amount of property to your children. On the other hand, the gap between rich and poor is smaller than in the United States, and for now, even the poor can receive medical care and social security that will not allow them to die, so society is stable at a low level. Having experienced a terrible destruction of property values ​​30 years ago, not much immigration, and a declining population, real estate is reasonable and prices have not risen at all until recently. As for which is better, the United States is economically stronger, but I think it would be difficult for mediocre people to live in the United States.

No one is coming in there to bother anybody. The whole area that she lives in is for the upper middle class. Therefore, the whole thing is nonsense! To be fair, she wasn't looking for this kind of living, but when we were looking for a rental place for her to downsize to after selling her house, well this place was very nice. She has worked hard her whole life and wanted a little luxury for the next couple of years before she retires and moves out of the country with me and my daughter.

South Africa is a good example of where gated communities made up for the failure of the government to protect them. There are also the golf estates where the super rich live, but the common middle class had to do it to protect themselves from the lawlessness outside of the gated communities.

Construction of the houses, clubhouses, pools, tennis courts, fences, golf courses, and so on produce so many jobs and employ thousands and thousands of people. They will also continue to employ thousands in order to maintain the grounds and facilities. That’s money in the pockets of small businesses and their employees.

Here in Africa, in Lusaka Zambia where I'm from we are welcoming gated communities with open arms. They are constructed on the outskirts where there is an abundance of land and beautiful views, thus creating new suburbs, not disturbing other established neighborhoods, latest eco friendly building technologies and techniques are being used, road networks are being expanded as a result.

Large and loud parties that go late into the night, garbage bin repeatedly left out after pickup, unkept landscaping, and it can be hard to win because they have it in writing that even as a homeowner, they own the land and can kick you out of your house.

Completely different worlds than most.
