TL;DR Summary

A family in Union Vale, New York, holds the Guinness World Record for the most lights on a residential property, attracting around 60,000 visitors each year. While some neighbors embrace the festive display, others complain about the heavy traffic and potential safety hazards. The homeowners, Timothy and Grace Gay, argue that the lights bring joy to the community and have raised over $656,000 for various charities since 2011. Despite the controversy, the Gays continue to spread holiday cheer, but plan to turn off the lights once they reach $1 million in donations.
