I thought the one thing about these sort of yards compared to more varied ones is that they're way easier to maintain.
Of course just not doing yard work is another option but maybe not so pleasant after a while.
It's less of a not doing work and more of a not trying to fight nature. I have very dense clay soil here, so trying to force some fragile grass seed is an uphill battle. But the clover and this fern-like stuff, that shows up without trying and keeps coming back. Just give it a trim every so often and let the critters that wander through help shape what suits their diets.
