Things like policies about pets, kids, guns, etc become filters for who moves there. This can be a good thing, or a bad thing depending on circumstances. I recall a community who could not sell some property because their policies and agreements were very specific about a number of lifestyle things and in order to live there you had to sign an agreement that you would abide by the agreements. This was a big selection factor which filtered out too many people I guess. In other places such things have been great because they filtered in the right people with sympathetic values. Our pet policy, which is kind of restrictive, has filtered out some people and I think in the final analysis, this is a good thing for us. Some groups allow people to move in without their knowing the agreements the community has made. This, in my opininon, is a huge mistake and often leads to discontent later.
