Community Design
Some communities are designed to separate neighborhoods from commercial and other areas, connecting them with relatively high speed thoroughfares on which NEVs cannot go, legally or safely. As a result, these vehicles are most common in communities that provide separate routes for them or generally accommodate slow speed traffic.
Some communities designed specifically with NEVs in mind include:
- Celebration, Florida
- The Villages, Florida
Other communities that permit NEVs:
- Alameda, California
- Put-in-Bay, Ohio
- Playa Vista, Los Angeles, California
- Lincoln, California
- Coronado, California
- Leaf Rapids, Manitoba, Canada

Famous quotes containing the words community and/or design:
“Justice begins with the recognition of the necessity of sharing. The oldest law is that which regulates it, and this is still the most important law today and, as such, has remained the basic concern of all movements which have at heart the community of human activities and of human existence in general.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
“Nowadays the host does not admit you to his hearth, but has got the mason to build one for yourself somewhere in his alley, and hospitality is the art of keeping you at the greatest distance. There is as much secrecy about the cooking as if he had a design to poison you.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
