The statement advising hams not to move into a development with either home

I'm inclined to disagree with you, but I don't have any more factual or
statistical information than you do to make or refute such a statement.
I wonder if such information exists; is there some compilation of data
that says that xx% of home sales included some kind of restriction?

I just noodled around the ARRL website and couldn't find any statistics.
Here in the Bay Area, anecdotal evidence is very strong that nothing
besides federally protected pizza dishes are allowed.

It also depends on where you are geographically. Here in rural
Minnesota such restrictions do not exist. But not everyone yearns to
live in rural Minnesota . . . especially at this time of the year grin

:-) Which explains why the residents of Lake Wobegon just spent two
weeks here, instead of their customary one-week visit to other cities...
