GG - you are just too nice for words! I am available for adoption.
Anon - We have always had small 6 ft high fenced in backyards (land in the SF Bay Area is at a premium). The back yards were very private and let you store all kinds of stuff outside.
Here in TV we have a much bigger back yard but because it is open to all it is basically useless for storage or hanging out laundry or letting the dog roam around. However, you get a lanai in TV that we didn't have before and it provides a lot of things that a fenced in yard did and we switched to in door cats. Plus, if you buy on a golf course, you get a large expanse of grass that someone else cuts and your back yard neighbors are too far away to disturb you.
