Just a squirrel observation, but based on the 5 pages so far to this thread could it be deduced that the averages of posters claiming to have and prefer private pools just might run parallel with threads on outsiders using T V pools.

I wonder if the same amount of posters who say "who cares if people without visitor passes use the pools in T V" equals the same number of posters indicating private home pools are much better than T V pools?

If memory serves me in most cases original purchasers of home pools do not recoop that entire cost. I suppose though, T V is an anomoly when it comes to the value of everything; pools, painted driveways, rock walls included.
