What wealthy neighborhoods have tacky, distasteful, or downright "ugly" buildings or architectural styles? Buildings that would appear to be undesirable but are actually very high in property value or neighborhoods that look undesirable but actually have very high median household incomes?
I find most McMansion style and vinyl housing to be tacky and cheap looking. Philly has plenty of amazing suburbs with wonderful architecture but some of the newer housing in Chester and Bucks County and some in NJ is not appealing to me.
Wealthy? Yes, but I'd rather not live in a gated community of cheaply constructed houses and families that look just like mine. I'd imagine there to be more of this type of architecture and construction in some of the newer and rapidly growing Metros.
The one thing I absolutely can’t stand are those HUGE obnoxious gates and entrances people build. what’s worse is when the house isn’t even that nice or that big to justify them.
If the town is nice enough why is such a gate necessary in the first place??
Like this perfect example of a rural new england house which isnt even that large...

oh dude, this is downright tasteful compared to a house near where I work. There's no street view in google, but it's a monstrosity - iron gates, lions, fountains, the works. I watched it nearly daily as it was coming together, and I felt the bile rising in my throat with every passing day. This is an extremely safe area so the "compound" feel is laughable.

I dont even see a gate that just a decorative stone wall. I think they're nice. Many of the homes on my street have stone pillars at the end of they're driveways with lights on top, I think theyre classy. And really if your living in an areas with multimillion dollar homes what do you expect a rowhouse with a front stoop..
I think much of the new architecture in the south and southwest are ugly. 5000 sqft homes right on top of one another all stucco. The northeast has always had classier looking suburbs, even new homes today for the most part are better looking.
