My understanding is that the streets in TV are public roads and maintained by the county. I'm not sure about the streets where the houses are but the "security gates" allow anyone who wants to enter - just press the red button.

I also understand that some of TV residents object to the current situation - some say that the security gates should be improved to really keep out outsiders and some say they're a waste of money and should be removed.

If the streets are indeed county streets, then they have to be open to the public. Does anyone know for sure if they are county roads/streets?
