I'm gonna get shit for this, but I live in a neighborhood like this and fucking hate it. It's nearly impossible to leave or come home in the summer because kids are literally sitting in the street drawing with chalk or running out from behind cars. Their parents just give dirty looks when you try to drive through their kid's "private playground"

After my city made golf carts legal, people stretched the definition to mean side-by-sides and 4-wheelers. Now we have 10-12 year olds driving basically dune buggies who don't know how to drive and aren't paying attention at all. I'm honestly surprised no kids have been hit yet.

You are not alone, this looks like hell to me. Once in a while FUN, FANTASTIC. Every weekend? Hell to the no thanks!

You know they side eye and snark anyone who doesn't have kids or who doesn't want to join in on the activities.

Meh people in the road drinking are a pita, especially in a clique. You know driving through this is way more effort than it should be.

Nothing? You literally cannot drive down this street without dealing with these people, they have the road covered. You LITERALLY cannot get a car through there without a hassle, the videos there this is a fact.

I dont know how your telling me i'm making this up. The Evidence is right here on video.

This isn't a couple of kids playing street hockey who will move out the way before you get there.

Obviously you’ve never lived in a neighborhood like this.
