A:I looked it up and found this...I for the most part, had these answers too but I copied them and here is what I have come up with for an answer; Privacy 1)Many of the lots in the greater Phoenix area are very small, and a block fence adds privacy to the yard. Not many people want their neighbors to be watching them from 20 feet away while they are lounging in the pool, barbecuing burgers, or sitting on the patio in the evening. Not only might you not want them to see you, but you might not want to see your neighbor sunbathing nude either. 2) Security 3) Block fences of a reasonable height are more difficult to climb than chain link fences. From a general security standpoint, if people can't see what's in your yard, or watch you through the windows in your house, they are less likely to know what's in your yard or in your home. Additionally, people with swimming pools want to make sure that neighbor children won't become endangered by getting into the yard and falling into the swimming pool. 4) Low Maintenance 5) Block fences last a very long time and are easy to maintain. People will often paint the block walls to match the house, or add stucco and paint to match the house. In that case there is some maintenance, as the fence will probably need to repainted as often as the exterior of the house is repainted. 6) Noise Abatement 7) Homes and neighborhoods that are close to well-travelled streets use block walls to minimize the noise. Even if a home doesn't back up to a through street, a block fence can help reduce noise from neighborhood dogs, kids, fountains, and generally loud neighbors. 8) Sturdiness 9) Block fences don't blow down during monsoon storms, and they aren't impacted by Phoenix summer heat. Block walls don't rust or warp, and they don't rot. 10) No bugs 11) Block walls are not associated with bug problems or termites, as wood fences might be. Block fences don't attract mold. 12) Critter Control 13) A block fence can keep some desert critters out of your yard, and will keep most dogs in your yard. 14) Fireproof Not much more to say about this category. Blocks don't burn. Wooden fences, or natural fences (hedges) do. 15) Weed/Plant Barrier 16) Block fences do a relatively good job of keeping the stuff that's growing on the other side of the wall from coming into your yard. Block fences will also keep the neighbor's sprinklers from watering your yard. .......So, if block fences are so wonderful, why doesn't everyone love them? Well, there are several reasons. 1) Block fences are expensive (but not as expensive as brick). 2) Block fences are not necessarily attractive. You can add ornamental iron to them, but that will change the nature of the security, privacy, and maintenance issues. Some people have designs or murals painted on their side of the walls to make them more interesting or artistic. 3) Block fences are difficult and costly to move after they have been built ....Personally I always thought they were worried about another Alamo!
