Gated communities typically enjoy lower incidences of crime and solicitation, as well as less traffic. Kids can play outside and you can jog or walk your dog with no worries. Reduced traffic also means less noise and a lower likelihood of car accidents.
Some gated communities simply have an automated gate that can be opened via a remote or an entry code, while some feature24/7guards that keep watch at the gate and do rounds in the neighborhood.
