One local place used to have what they called a communal garden but was closer to an allotment since the planting spots were raised garden beds. It was shut down due to ongoing issues with people doing their vegetable "shopping" there. Two neighbours of mine had a spot there for quite a few years. One weekend a couple of years ago, when they went to tend their plot, their tomato plants had been stripped bare for the second year in a row. At that point, they like many of the other gardeners, decided against renewing their spot.
