I live in a townhouse community. We have assigned parking spaces in front of our homes.
team you. If you have a driveway and a garage or car port -you should use it. Street parking should only be something that you do for guests or in an emergency. It should not be your go to. It clogs up the streets and blocks driveways and mailboxes and can even make it harder to see kids running out into the street etc.yippity wrote: ↑Fri Jun 15, 2018 5:13 pm Do you park in your driveway or in the street?
Every single house in my neighborhood has a driveway that is utilized. My parent's neighborhood, however, is a different story. Each house has a driveway, yet every single person parks in the damn street. I've never seen an actual car in a driveway over there. I know it's silly, but it drives me nuts!!
Did you not take that into consideration when purchasing the car and house?silverdawn99 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 15, 2018 8:47 pm I have a driveway but its small and hard to back out of with my big ass suburban
When we bought this house I took into consideration wanting a driveway big enough to accommodate our cars plus when we have cars for our kids plus having room for guests. And we found a house with a very large yard you could park in along with a long driveway to park in.

Funny I have the same thing where I live
We built a double driveway so every o e could be in the driveway but still dh will park his truck no far enough in so someone is on the street at most days lol
We have a lot of homes with cars in the street

I'm always nervous when my car is in the street. I don't know why anyone with a choice would leave it out there for any knucklehead to run into. Makes no sense!

We park in the driveway. Our road really isn’t wide enough to park on.yippity wrote: ↑Fri Jun 15, 2018 5:13 pm Do you park in your driveway or in the street?

I usually park in the driveway. If dh gets home before me he hogs it so he doesn’t have to move it in the morning so then I park in the street.

I hate street parking if there’s a perfectly good driveway available.
