Facilities can include:
1. Security from the mutwwa
2. Pools, both private and public
3. Gymnasiums
4. Food markets
5. Travel agents
6. Laundries
7. Private gardens (in both the British AND American senses
8. Video and book libraries
9. Bars
10. Nurseries
11. CCTV
12. Movie theaters
13. Bowling alleys
14. Baseball/Softball fields
15. Handball/Squash courts
16. Restaurants
17. Mini-golf courses
18. Dispensaries
19. Auto repair shops
20. Saunas/whirlpools
22. Post offices
23. Football pitches
24. Cricket pitches
25. Gamerooms
26. Probably more things that I've forgotten...
All of these facilities were available on the myriad compounds that the missus and I inhabited in one instance or another...except for the cricket pitches...'cuz I don't swing that way!
Hope this helps answer some of your questions...
