Wealth seems to bring with it seclusion. Private roads and estates, big empty houses. In contrast the counter culture examples show people living in sprawling communities helping one another.
Serious question: why don't these communities 'succeed' then. Meaning, why don't they keep existing for decades, and why don't more people get interested in this way of living?

Some of them do, like Black Bear Ranch. I’d wager that there are more that just don’t advertise.
