Parking On Stratford?

Exactly… where is it legal to park on Stratford? Neighbor Kyle writes:

I am a Stratford resident between Cortelyou and Dorchester and I’ve been wondering for some time about some of the parking areas (or non-parking?!) in the immediate area. I’d love some input on some of these questionable spots, pseudo-legal driveways, and yellow-painted curbs in the neighborhood that just have an air of doubt to them when I’m struggling on Mondays/Tuesdays for a legal spot.

Have you had any weird parking experiences in the neighborhood–gotten tickets where it should have been legal to park, or found suspicious spots that were legal after all? And are some local streets markedly harder to park on (for illegal curb-painting or other strange reasons)? Stratford parkers or not, chime in below.
