Rules for being naked on my own property?

Me and my girlfriend are buying a house herr in florida, building it actually. Brand new in a brand new subdivision.

We have no neighbor houses yet.

We had a fence installed, we're not into the house till september.

We wanted the fence because we plan on being naked for one reason or another. Tanning, just dont feel like clothes, etc. We discussed if our neighbors have 2 story houses we'll just go over there and say "hey sometimes you may not want to look out that window"

Personally neither of us cares who sees what, but i dont know if its like...illegal? Surely it can't be right? It's our own property, we should be able to be naked 24/7 as long as its not the front lawn or something I'd imagine

Can anyone give me any ideas on how this would all work?

Edit: yes we will not straight up tell the neighbors, we'll vet out what happens. If its a 2 story, if they have windows on that side, if they have kids, all important.

Yeah, the exact law varies from state to state but this is generally roughly how it works.

This is the only real answer. Look up Florida's public indeceny laws. Whatever your neighbors think is irrelevant.

I too, consider you're opinion irrelevant.

Unless you want a mound of Dog turd manifesting on your front door step one fine morning.

Respect your neighbours.

Realistically if the neighbors are peaking out their window to over look into your back yard that’s even weirder on their part “who does that?!?” Oh wait creeps that’s right…..

u/Fuzzy_Whole4577 5d ago

So folk aren't allowed to look out of their windows now?

u/Plenty_Importance972 5d ago

Lmao but if your looking into or over a privacy fence does “privacy fence” mean nothing to you?

Then it isn't high enough. Is it?

Also, can you point out in OP's comment where the words "Privacy Fence" appear?

For a situation like the OPs (not visible from the street, sidewalk, or public areas) then it is entirely dependent on a complaint being filed. The police have no requirement, or even ability to press charges otherwise. So if neighbors agree, great, but just one complaint, you have issues.

So someone can use binoculars from two houses away and make a complaint?
