I do like the woman who said she moved to get away from the parents and was glad never to hear about school catchements again lol.

Obviously I could never move there with my millions of kids lol

Sounds like the retirement-ghetto-from-hell, who wants to live in any kind of ghetto anyway?

'no hanging washing outside'

So they all have clothes dryers??? What's wrong with a washing line then??

LOL, very observant!

sounds dull, dull, dull!

After the noise level in our house today, I'd love to move there on my own and leave everyone behind

I think I can understand them a bit. When your children have grown up and left home,it might be nice to have a bit of peace and not have to put up with other peoples kids.

What a bunch of wierdos and how sad.
Not to hear children playing or see little toddlers. Think they're all bitter.

I also think it's a disgrace. I'd like to see the reactions if we had 'no pensioners villages' or 'no gays villages'.

Sad sad people!

Or "only one gay in the village"

reminds me of the stepford wives but only stepford couples

what a shit place to live.

oh I don't know, after my monster of a day...!

Think it sounds odd - they will probably be invaded by hoards of families, picnicing by the roadside, just to annoy them

infact, fancy a MN day out?

Sounds horrible. Round here it's not the kids who are the problem it's the adults. Kids don't tend to have drunken rows whilst walking home from a club at 3am!!! Or drive dangerously. Or leave bags of rubbish out for a whole week when they miss the bin lorry.

It's some adults who cause a problem ...and their badly brought up children. To blame all children for problems is just stupid. I imagine that the real change is leaving behind the badly behaved adults.

I'd hate a community without kids. We're already a society that resents children - it isn't true that children are accomodated more and more.....it's true that society welcomes the money that they can be made by accomodating children but that isn't the same thing.

How sad. It's probably for the best that these people are locked away from our children though.

An ominous sign of how intolerant and selfish society is becoming. I would like to ask these people where their future undertaker is going to come from?

sounds ridiculous, no starting car engines after 9pm!. what do you do if someone needs to go to hospital?, say to them you'll have to wait until the morning as i can't start the car til then!

• could I get a condo there - just for weekends?

sad, unrealistic people, and the thread title says it all.

I think they have quite a few of these communites in the U.S. For older people where there are lots of rules and no children except for the occasional visiting grandchild.

The main rule I though was hilarious actually was no starting of car engines before 7am or after 9pm. Do none of these 45+ year olds have to go to work in the morning or go out in the evening? Sounds a bit 'sanitised for me'
