Limited common areas and facilities means those common areas and facilities designated in the declaration as reserved for use of a certain unit or units to the exclusion of the other units.
For instance, in Pennsylvania, HOAs are regulated by the Uniformed Planned Community Act (UPCA). This act applies to all planned communities with more than 12 units and creates responsibilities for HOAs to oversee these communities. That said, HOAs typically have documents that regulate themselves.

A common area is some shared space or amenity between unit owners or shareholders of a common interest development (CID). In housing CIDs, common areas can include things such as yard space, a basketball court, pool, laundry room, or a mail room.
A common element is defined as all portions of the property except the units. Examples of common elements include fitness centers, elevators, lobbies, walkways, lighting in common hallways, garbage collection areas, swimming pools, landscaping, club houses, and more.
The Common Interest Ownership Act (CIOA) defines a “limited common element” as “a portion of the common elements allocated … for the exclusive use of one or more but fewer than all of the units.” The key phrase here is exclusive use.
Start with Google and the County Assessor's Office For example, if your neighbor's home is for sale, Google their address and check the listing information. Often, the listing agent includes the subdivision name and possibly the HOA's contact information.
