Do you get along with your neighbours?
I have one loud neighbour and one I might consider to be somewhat of an ass. Not bad.

I have a loud neighbor, too. I have a black to the left of me, a lesbian to the right, an Arab family to the next of her. We all get along well. We are neighbors as neighbors should be.
I have wonderful close neighbors.

Not really. Most people in the city are inconsiderate, entitled, gossipy dickheads.

I was raised in the country. Then I raised my family in the city. After 20 years of hearing drunken brawls, the constant fighting, and the repeated blaring of sirens, I moved back to the country. Best move I could have made. In the city, fences make the best neighbors.........

Pretty much so. We're all kind of quiet but when we see each other talk and spread news of the neighborhood. I don't feel like it's anything personal but more a way to keep tabs on each other. For example, some young men, 20s, rented the house in the cul-de-sac, a few doors away, and they were partying and drugging and selling drugs and getting upto neighbors faces, even threatening to get a gun and shoot people. We all watched them, got to know their patterns, and one night a drug deal went down and the cops were called and they were all dragged away never to be seen again. We were all milling about big grins on our faces saying you dumbasses.

I just moved away from a similar situation, now I live in a small house with a nice porch that started life as a 2 car garage in the 60's not the biggest house but sufficient, the original house is where my landlord lives, we get on just fine. My entire house has a lockable privacy fence around, not far off to one side is a great big 2 story wooden house that dates to 1920, no one has lived in it in over 12 years, it helped block a lot of wind during Irma!
