Poor people are typically poor because they aren't intelligent or conscientious enough to modify bad behavior.
The value of being orderly and having standards is a blind spot for them. And when someone points it out they usually just get angry because it sounds like nonsense to them. |

I’ve noticed this too. I have some trashy family and a paved driveway with a turn around. Sure as shit when they come over they part right in the grass.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The people I see doing that don’t have driveways or have too many vehicles to fit in the driveway. I don’t tend to see them parking in the yard with a clear driveway. Could be they want to leave the driveway clear for the car in the garage or for frequent guests/drug buyers. Poor people tend not to care about maintaining the appearance or condition of things, which explains the lack of aversion to parking in the grass but not the motivation for doing so. This. Normally cars get parked on the street & driveway/garage, but when it snows they have to go somewhere. Side yard next to the driveway is the best spot for the ones that don't fit in driveway. Eventually I'll have that area done up with concrete, but for now the grass will do. edit: Also, I grew up in the country and in & around farms. City people put waaaaay too much value into grass. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Why do rich people care where poor people park? Because when you live a nice neighborhood that has well kept lawns and such. it looks like total TRASH that some red fucking red neck parks their car in the grass in the front yard... how about that for why they care... |

Typical housing tract these days the street is too narrow to park on it and you've got a whole street of 5 bdrm houses with garages that fit 1-2 cars and if you park in the driveway you have to move that car to get the garaged car out.
Plus a lot of people use their garage as shop space or even as living space. In my old neighborhood it was trendy to put your beer pub in the garage and open the garage door when you were pouring. HOA would fine you for parking on the lawn though. One of the things I looked for this last move was driveway parking for four cars and an RV without blocking so I can use the garage for woodworking. |

Far from poor, but I live out in the sticks on acreage with a very long driveway and park some vehicles in the "yard." (I keep about 3 acres immediately around the house cut & clear as "yard."
I have one garage and a double carport attached to the house, and a 3-car pad at the end of the drive next to the garage. Unfortunately, those have to accommodate 2 two-seat convertibles, 2 sedans, 2 pickup trucks, 3 SUVs, and a camper.  (And I'm about to buy my oldest child his own car to get used to before he goes to college; he's been switching between a couple of mine thus far.  )Having some of my vehicles on grass beats having to move one (or three) just to get another one out - couldn't care less what anyone thinks about it, either.  |

I own 2 trucks & 2 cars. My AtoB car is parked in the side yard right now, the trucks are in the 3-car garage. I get tired of marshaling vehicles; parking in the side yard keeps one of the garage doors open.

Garage access, driveway was occupied whenever it was originally parked, no where else to park. Pretty common site here in Midland, small rent house with 2-4 newish 250/2500/350/3500 brodozers out front and aabout a matching number of company trucks

Dear sir, I am sorry to have offended you. Please accept my most sincere apologies for having caused a spike in your blood pressure. My words were foolish, and without thought. I hope someday you can forgive me, and we can be friends? Maybe on facebook or nextdoor to start? (I’m assuming you are on both because you live in what sounds like a super nice neighborhood) Then, with enough confidence built up via social media, perhaps we can be real friends someday? |

Quoted: I'm not talking about parking a truck in the front yard for 15 minutes to unload a piece of furniture or even the long term anchoring of non-running vehicles on the lawn. I'm referring to the parking of daily drivers in the front yard, often even when there is ample parking space in the driveway. I've noticed that this phenomenon seems to transcend racial and geographic (although it seems to be highly prevalent in Texas) boundaries but the one thing they have in common is socioeconomic status. On the other hand, I never see people of higher means park in their yards. Even the successful first generation immigrants do not do this. I see it here in rural MO too, always trailer trash or worse. |
