Nothing goes on in the back of the house so why not sit out in the front?
Hell my wife's mad at me because I sat the grill out in the front driveway instead of the back deck.
I'd just rather enjoy my kids playing as I always have in the front yard while I'm Q'ing..
Back yard is too enclosed.

In other houses where I've lived, we used the front yard and driveway quite a bit. Also, we were younger and lived in college neighborhoods. As such, it would be like a block party most nights. Now, though, our back yard opens up to a 15 acre green space behind us, and we have killer gardens. Our front yard, on the other hand, is a freaking grassless wasteland thanks two gigantic maples that cast their shadow over it.
It's a mixed bag. I miss the community aspect of everyone hanging out in the front, but I love sitting in the backyard and forgetting that I even live in the city.
