My first house was in a neighborhood where the builder set up an HOA mainly to care for the clubhouse/pool. Before I moved in, the neighborhood voted to disband the HOA and sell the pool. I think it was sold to a private entity.. its been a while. We didn't have kids and never went to the pool, so I'm fuzzy on who owned it.
I loved that neighborhood. All of the neighbors became friends. It was the closest nit neighborhood I've ever lived in, aside from my college dorm. Property values did not suffer when the guy across the street and one over painted his house pink, nor did they suffer when my neighbor's parents visited in their RV and parked in front of his home for 2 weeks every summer.
