As a fellow European, preventing the value of your house dropping because your neighbors didn’t clean up their front yard.

That does not have to be the responsibility of HOAs. I have had a period where my previous gardener quit and I was looking for a new one; some weeds in the front yard grew too tall. The city sent me an official reminder. This was in a neighborhood without HOAs.
but why would you need an HOA for that? If your neighbor drops their junk on the street you can just call the cops on them yourself
Because in many places, having things in your front yard is not a crime? It could be car parts, could be children's toys, could be trash. If you don't have a city that enforces that, HOA or a management company which the owner/renter goes into contract with is the best way to manage that.
