[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] I grew up in a town in NJ that was mostly white and there weren’t any community pools. First time I ever heard of such a thing was when I moved to VA. Nobody cared at all. Why would there be shared pools?[/quote] Name the town. [/quote] Lol. There are hundreds of towns in the NE that do not have community pools. It just isn’t as much of a thing. I grew up in western NY (Rochester area) and we certainly didn’t have them. In newer (post-70s) suburban housing developments with larger lots, people often put in an (commonly above ground) pool in their backyard. I think it’s pretty hard to construct new pools these days in densely populated areas, due to space, cost, and liability issues.[/quote]
