Gated Community - Examples

Examples

A limited number of gated communities have long been established for foreigners in various regions of the world:

  • The worker compounds in the Middle East, built largely for the oil industry.
  • The closed cities of Russia are also an example of purpose-designed gated communities.
  • The Arbor Oaks subdivision located in El Monte, California, which appears in the film Back to the Future Part II as Hilldale, is now gated because of the fans coming to see it in person. Residents are sometimes angry at fans who come by the development.
