      I used to live in the neighborhood with a lawyer old couple, we have HOA, but this couple manage to let their front yard look like a ghost house with grasses taller than me and and old rusty with all 4 flat tires shiting on their drive way. Apparently they are know how to work around the law and fight against HOA in courts, claim that their grasses was herbs or something.

    I worked for a boss who loved colorful houses. We were in a neighborhood that didn't have a lot of color basically bland. He bought a significant portion of the properties in this area and started painting them pink purple green a mixture of all the brightest colors. We were painting a bright purple house in between two normal houses. When my boss came the neighbors came out and started yelling at him about why they would paint something like that. My boss didn't miss a beat he started bitching them out and saying he's the one that's actually making this neighborhood look better. You said you should be thanking me not yelling at me. He was the one getting rid of all the drug dealers and prostitutes. I know it sounds like a stretch but he really did buy so much of the area that he kicked out 90% of the bs. The people knew who he was just shut up and walked back in thier house.

      Using a broader lens, the “Pink” house is more relevant when the neighbors want to sell their homes AND nobody wants to buy due to the pink house w/the pink lights next door.
      As a home owner, I do understand their perspective as well. I would sell & move immediately as he is free to continue his personalization of his home. It will get worse.
      Unfortunately, this is exactly how a nice neighborhood turns “bad”. As residents are desperate to sell or rent out, prices drop, which financially allows a different income group in (family of 15+, seen it happen, think of all the cars parked up & down the street blocking driveways), and/or homes vacant for squatters/etc. Once squatters move in, you are financially done especially pending your state’s laws. Take care & have a nice week.

This is of course the USA so the young man is free to do as he pleases with his property but as for me his behavior seems a bit on the selfish side. I can only imagine the hardships that he’s faced so I can’t really relate to what’s lead him to this mentality. I know lots of military veterans that have lost more than he’s ever thought about losing and apparently since he’s living in a nice home and the vets are sometimes homeless I’m going to stick with my thought that he’s being selfish. I personally would conduct myself with the mindset of would my neighbors run into my home to save me if it was on fire? In a basic sense that’s one reason to play nicely with one another.
