I came from a "private," gated street where every homeowner parked on the street. Why? Because the garage, if there was any, was 1) too small for today's behemoths, and 2) was accessible only off the alley in back, which everyone knew was unsafe!

We knocked down our garage there at least 45 years ago!

My 14-year-old car loves being inside all the time here in TV! No more ice, snow, leaves and such.

But, I'm reasonably (un)comfortable with two neighbors. 1) Her SUV-style vehicle sits outside all the time because the garage protects her "vintage" Mercedes! 2) They're over-"vehicle-ized," with two cars, two golf carts as well as a Harley! And, half the time, they're away!

It's part of the charm of TV, frankly! :-)
