We have lived on private streets before and after the fleecing from our real estate tax bill, we then began paying all the other expenses. No thank you.
Why does it have to cost more? It's the same expenses as any other town incurs except you have gates. That SHOULD be the only additional expense. Incorporate into a town...a private town. I'll trade a few of the flowerbeds for the gates.
