We have some good neighbors and some that aren’t necessarily bad, they’re just pretty inconsiderate and that’s mainly when it comes to their dogs (who enjoy barking none stop at 530 in the morning!)

ETA: That was really nice of him to do that, I bet he made your day!

We do have some nice neighbors so far. We have a house across the street that is not occupied but is owned. It was in terrible condition, sold as a foreclosure and the people that bought it are slowly fixing it up and when I say slowly...I do mean slooooooooooooowly. They have been working on it for over a year...HA! I hope there will be some good people there but everyone else is nice. Lots of young couples just starting families and then there are the older retired people that have lived here for many years. It's sad because a lot of elderly people are going into nursing homes and their homes are being sold.

We've been blessed with good neighbors for the past 38 years. We help each other as needed.

Only have one neighbor. She is a widow, lives alone, minds her own business, and waves when she sees us. It's really nice. I must admit I don't like to start a chat with her because she will hold me hostage for hours. She has lots and lots of friends and goes on many trips and outings and loves to tell me stories of all of them. But it's a much better situation than when we lived in a crowded subdivision, with 4 trillion unsupervised kids and towards the end of our stay there, some section 8 houses that RUINED the living there. Me and SO agree that if we ever get another house, we will have more land and NO neighbors within walking distance.

Evan though we are in a fairly remote rural area, we have great neighbors. The ones closest to us help each other out if needed, except one, who has always stayed inside and we hardly ever see him. I walk often with 3 ladies in the neighborhood.

His first wife died suddenly and he did become more friendly for a while. Then he remarried and we have never even met or seen his second wife.

My neighbor is so thoughtful, when we come back from vacation we find a full meal, dessert too, in our fridge and flowers on our island. So sweet!!

We love our neighborhood and have considerate neighbors. Our next door neighbor knew we were going to be away for an extended time last summer, so he offered to do our lawn work while we were gone. We get together with our immediate neighbors for celebrations once in a while, and every few years we close our street to traffic and have a block party for the entire area.

I have great neighbors. Always willing to lend a hand. Both sets on either side of me are on vacation this week for spring break so I am on "mail duty". I will keep an eye on things and collect their mail for them. They do the same for me. I have even been gone longer than expected and able to text my neighbor to let Carmelita out to potty. We all have each other's house keys. Comes in handy!

At the last house...no. The house before that...yes. Where we're living now...yes. :0) We absolutely love our neighbors here.

We've been here 5 years and I don't know the neighbors well. We have maybe 20 homes on our culdesac and I've spoken to 3 people maybe? But most wave when we see each other.

I'm hoping Rhizo shows up with a story about the Sprites. To me, that is the most heart warming ongoing neighbor story ever.

I have one kind of near neighbor...there is 10 acres of thick woods between her house and mine. I don't like her. She has a 20 something son that comes and goes. He is a meth addict, and she is an enabler because she let's him come back and even though she is afraid of him herself, I blame her for 90% of his messed up life. To say I despise them both is to put it mildly. He almost shot me on 2 separate occasions. The bullets whizzed past my head. I didn't press charges the first time...I did the 2nd time, and she came unglued. She said I lied about it. I may be a lot of things...a liar I am not. I do know neighbors farther up the bayou and I get along with them fine. Before I moved here, I always got along with my neighbors. I will bend over backwards to get along, but I can't tolerate the crazy woman and the meth head. And almost shooting me is not the only things he has done. Some are so despicable I don't even want to talk about it.

All our current neighbors are great. However 30 years ago we had neighbors from hell. I could write a book about it. No one would believe it wasn't fiction. For the first time I carried concealed. We won. They moved and we are still here. Love all my current neighbors. People respect each others privacy but are always willing to lend a hand.

Overall, we have pretty good neighbors. Other than a few first world problems, my neighbors don't give me much to complain about. Lots of kids here. With few exceptions, most people are polite or even friendly. We look out for each other.

We have great neighbors but now I really want to read about Rhizo's!

I would love an updated sprites story. They always brighten my day and remind me of when I was a little girl and my next door neighbor was my friend.

I have good thoughtful neighbors.

We live on acreage and reallylove our neighbours. Well, the ones next door are the best. Our daughter, husband and 3 granddaughters!

Our subdivision is just outside the city limits. We all have a few acres and we all enjoy our privacy and room to stretch. Many of us are walkers so we meet and greet and chat and catch up as we pass by. We share seedlings, advise and pitch in when one of the 90yr old oaks looses a major branch or just falls over. Presently I am house-sitting for a couple across the road. They will reciprocate when we vacation later in the summer. Its a fabulous neighborhood!!

Our nearest neighbors are at least 1/2 mile away--unless you count the 4-legged variety. While it is nice to have complete privacy, there are times when I miss having neighbors. In previous homes, I had wonderful neighbors. A neighbor from my last house remains my best friend--we've been friends for more than 35 years. I wish she were still my neighbor!

Glenda, it's hard to believe you have been in your condo that long. I've known (and adored) you for 20 years--PJR was a little guy when we "met".

For the most part we have very good neighbors. The closest one can be a little clueless, but she grew up on a huge ranch where there weren't any neighbors to be considerate of. Down deep, she has a heart of gold once you explain things to her. All other neighbors are great and I know would do what ever needed to be of service to us. However it is my DH who is the 'prince' of good neighborliness. Every neighbor has at one time or another benefitted from his volunteering his help.

I don't really see my neighbors or know them. The new neighbor across the street introduced herself about a month or so ago but haven't seen her since. She moved in last year. People here wave when you drive by and they are outside but that's about it.

We have great neighbors, I love my neighborhood!

I live in a conventional suburban neighborhood with large-ish lots. There's enough space between houses that you can come and go, be around the house and not closely see nor necessarily be seen, as regards neighbors.

It's a live and let live vibe, neighbors are "there" and available if a need arises. Otherwise, we all just do what we do and life goes on. That suits me fine. We have several sets of friends in other parts of the neighborhood, not next door. I think it's the same for them.

We have great neighbors to the immediate right and left of us. We know only other other household on our street besides our immediate neighbors, and they are great, too. Everyone else on the street always smiles and waves and says "hi" to each other, but that's about it. No one immediately behind us because of the creek that runs behind our property.

Yes! We have good neighbors. I could count on any one of several in a pinch and they are always pleasant when we see each other.

Overall yes. No complaints. Me and my neighbors who had the dog sitting issue a couple years back never really got back on track. It's pretty clear they didn't want to resume a friendship with me. Sad, but nothing I can do.

People on my street really keep to themselves. Everybody works and is gone most the weekends. They all wave, but that's all. Directly across the street are a couple in their 80's . They are great and we meet at our mailboxes and visit. We both like to work in the yards, so we see each other. Neighbors next door have had me feed their dogs when on vacation, but they weren't very interested when I suggested they use the petsitter I use. I guess they just wanted free.

I am happy with the neighbors I have - they are not best friends (like some neighbors I have had). I'm in the city limits of Los Angeles, but the neighborhood has a somewhat suburban feel to it, and the street has almost no traffic.

When I lived in Venice (just before moving to where I am now), I had very friendly neighbors on one side, but they were very young and had parties almost every week-end (we were invited), but this did not bother me. Venice has mostly renters but Westchester (where I live now) is mostly owner occupied and there are almost no rental houses on my street now. When I rented in Culver City, my next door neighbors became my best friends, but then we moved away from each other and don't see each other as often as we used to.

We also have good neighbors. We are the "designated grandparents" in our neighborhood. The kids are great and always wave. If they're out when I'm out picking up sticks before mowing, they come over and help. One of then always wheels our trash can back up to the house from the street.

We all watch out in our 'hood. We haven't done the pet sitting thing, but would if we were available. No one gets into anyone else's business. Just, dependable and friendly.

We have great neighbors in this neighborhood . We all help each other , chit chat and the dogs even play with each other. It's so nice here !
