    Nope - absolutely the same here. There’s typically a stretch of property facing the street and potentially in an adjacent alley where the homeowner is responsible for basic maintenance (mowing the grass) but it’s used for utility access and may be taken off they decide to widen the roads. I’m sure exceptions exist, but less commonly.

      Hell, one of the houses I looked at when I moved had an easement about farmers taking cows across the yard (probably leftover from the 1700s, but still).
