One of the big benefits of typical subdivisions is that you DON'T have commercial properties within them. Yes you can find them on the street outside the community but that is the point. Its homes and at most some amenities that are clearly for the community and not commercial. There is actually a good number of people who don't want the pools, tennis courts, and such, that some larger subdivisions have. Fortunately in my state its been law for decades all streets have to have a side walk on one side and this makes getting around really simple. Really comes down to that divide, between home, shopping, and work. A person's home is their castle and their subdivision their country. The barbarians are at the gate
