Print up some flyers with your phone number with an offer to mow lawns. Ask your parents if you can put up a sign in your front yard.

Decide in advance on your pricing (likely based on how large the lawn whether you can ride it all or must use a push mower.) Check around to see what others are charging. You might have to cut your price a bit to get started.

Since you are under 16 you might try linking up with someone a little older who can drive and has a pickup to try to get work outside your gated community. Just be sure your folks agree before you attempt this.
