Neighbors??? Yay or Nay

Yeah, I don't care for HOA's either. I've seen more nagging annoyances with them than anything positive out of them. The HOA I'm currently in is pretty much not-existent, which I'm grateful for. But when I lived in Scottsdale, AZ they were horrible to deal with. Old retired folk with nothing better to do than go out daily with their clip boards and document everything they didn't like and turn it into the HOA. Petty little drama bullshit over someone's opinion with how others should live and/or create the decor of their own domain.

Oh I get it…as I’m only a city over from Scottsdale. I call it Snotts-Dale cuz of all the rich pricks that live there.

I miss country living. I used to feed the birds with feeders so I’d get turkey, and deer in the back yard all the time. My first house I had a massive problem with raccoons. I live trapped 22 coons in the first 2months. This was all to save my bird seed and my feeders from getting destroyed every night. I relocated them about 5-10 miles away. I couldn’t trap them for their fur cuz it was summer otherwise I’d of been making $20-50 per pelt back then.

A couple of months ago I had my first coon issue at the house after being in my place for 11 years now. It was a big ass coon, at first thought it might be a bear because it was up on the railing of the front porch which gave the illusion of height, but it turned out to be a coon. Only time it woke me up in the middle of the night. I know it's around, could smell it before and after the incident on the porch, but no issues to worry about.
