A private community is a residential community that can be an association or a proprietary organization. Associations can include condominiums, residential associations, and cooperatives.
Whereas governmental communities are financed with taxation, where taxes typically have little connection with benefits, private communities are financed as payments for benefits. In a hotel, for example, the public goods such as elevators and security are paid for from room charges.
