Community map

A satellite map of the community with a pin on every property. Useful for orienting yourself, finding a neighbor’s unit, or seeing the layout of the HOA at a glance.

What the map shows

Every active property in the community’s roster that has latitude and longitude on file shows up as a pin. Clicking a pin opens a popup with the address and the number of residents currently linked to that property. Properties without coordinates aren’t plotted (those need an admin to add lat/lng on the property record).

Centering on your property

If your account is linked to a property with coordinates, the map has a “Center on my property” affordance that pans and zooms to your pin. The map also supports fullscreen via the standard Google Maps fullscreen control in the corner, which is handy on a phone or for a presentation.

Opting out of the map

Two independent privacy switches affect what shows here. an admin can hide a property from the map entirely (rare. usually used for vacant or sensitive units), and any resident can opt out of being counted in the resident-count popup on their property’s pin from the privacy section of /profile. The pin still exists; you just don’t add to the count.

Pins aren’t per-person
The map shows properties, not individual residents. There’s no way to see who lives at a given pin from the map itself; the popup only carries the address and an aggregate count.

What admins see

Admins see every active property, including ones flagged hidden by the property-level toggle, so they can verify the full roster is mapped correctly. Resident-side opt-outs from the profile privacy toggle still apply (the resident count on each pin only counts opted-in profiles), but no property is hidden from the admin view by either of the two privacy switches.
