HOA is run by the home owners, excellent reserve for emergencies and surprisingly the lowest monthly dues that I am aware of. Unfortunately units are sought after. Rarely does a unit stay on the market more than 15 days. I'm happy here than the mega campuses of SDS, Suissevale, Balmoral, Samoset etc.

Care to share where?
