As far as gates go, the confusion is that they “look” like gates. They are actually traffic signs. If we had red/yellow lights (with cameras) in their place, which may happen if too many gates are driven through accidentally, no one would talk about a “gated community”. Just as traffic lights don’t filter traffic, neither do these gates.

I read where it says “Villages offers many safety and security services” etc… they mean vehicle safety by controlling traffic, when it comes to the gates. They just lumped it in with other services to make it sound more vague. And some people jump to the conclusion, they have gates, it MUST be a gated community.
