Is this normal? My neighborhood in Tennessee was over 70 years old and we did not have similar issues. Maybe it is just reported in the local newspaper more often but I really don't know. My gut says it is due to substandard building practices but I have no information to back that up.
I'd like to hear the thoughts of others with some experience in this arena.

Poor infrastructure. The developer does a poor job and then the residents have to pay for repairs. I lived in New Jersey, Ocala and LA and never saw anything like it is here.
