You certainly could set up a neighborhood to exclude people who don't live there

True but you can't stop anyone from buying a residence there if they want to and put in the best bid for the property.

People who don't like gay marriage could look for neighborhoods where they think that gay couples don't and won't want to live; but they can't set up any structure to keep gays from moving in short of buying up all the neighboring properties on the street (or doing that as a group) then never selling.

It's tough to stop change, despite the vigorous efforts by so many to try.
