homeowner's association
Residential rule enforcers
A homeowner's association (HOA) is an organization that governs a residential community, typically a subdivision or condominium complex.
Homeowners automatically become members and pay dues funding shared amenities and maintenance.
The HOA enforces rules covering everything from lawn care to exterior paint colors: The HOA fined us for leaving the trash cans out.
Often a source of neighborhood friction.
