Interesting problem, and something I had never thought about. I have not seen any apartment type housing that advertised electric vehicle charging, and certainly not 'dedicated' for a specific owner. Enforcement of parking for electric vehicles only in public spaces seems to be s lost cause, and i am not sure any better for assigned spaces (think about handicapped parking).
Possibly someone from California may have some insight into this potential problem.

OP, if you are looking to move into the villages or the surrounding area, you will need to specifically ask to see if there are any arrangements for electric charging and then the arrangement s if someone uses 'your' spot.

Good luck with your quest.
