[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the location and what the amenities in the community are.  I live in a townhome with a pretty decent reserve fund & no pool but our fees are still upwards of $100/mo.  The largest portion of this fee is landscaping, as well as trash & snow removal.  All the roads in our community are private roads, no county maintenance at all.  That $7/mo fee is likely a county maintained road with nothing more but a clubhouse and possibly a tot lot or basketball court.

Regarding Burke, there is the whole Burke Conservancy.  It isn't just your immediate neighborhood, it's the entire area of Burke.  There are several common areas, pools & paths that are maintained by the conservancy.  I suspect there is a common amount each resident pays then add in whatever addl is necessary for their immediate community. [/quote]

OP here.  I guess I always assumed that when there was an HOA the roads were maintained by the HOA (including plowing).  I'm pretty sure with townhouses it's almost always the case but I admit I have very little familiarity when it comes to HOAs for SFH.[/quote]
