I live in a gated lifestyle village of 270 homes. I know about 1/2 quite well by playing bowls and activities in the village. Of course there are a few I don't get along with but all in all its a great group of people. Have our own facebook page where we share ideas and info (Shopping specials). I'm here till the pine box arrives.

Yes and no , on one side a lovely neighbor and on the others side a controlling winger ( I just ignore and keep enjoying my life) I'm not going to let a winger make me unhappy

great neighbors

No. Their dogs are like alarm clocks and wake us every morning.

I don’t really know my neighbors that well but the ones that I’ve met seem nice enough

I have good neighbours, there are 5 ground floor units, 4 of us are in our 70's-80's and we get on very well helping out if needed, the other 3 own their units, whereas I rent. Then there's the other renters, a youngish couple who don't have much to say to any of us, but at least they are not rowdy or annoying.

No. Definitely not what I'd call good. But not the worst either. I've seen and read horror stories.

No

One side is miserable. Complains the town tree in front of my house sheds its fall leaves on her property. Other side is good.

i have absolutely terrible animals living next door - a real gang house - free grass, meth etc.

One bad the others ok.but very unfriendly Been here 3o years most if whi was here is gone the community was good then we all had similar values. Now it's different a lot different.

I guess I live in a hood neighborhood. It's quiet. Rural living. Except I'm native American in a town mostly Caucasian.

Yes on both sides of us. They are friendly. We just say hi and light conversation

He is getting a bit old and keeps complaining about petty things.

Some are good. And some are bad

Used to know all the neighbours but over the years they’ve moved away and most of the new ones are very ethnic diverse and work hard so aren’t home very much they are quiet and keep themselves pretty much to themselves

Yes they ar3vwonderful and reliable

I don't have to shovel snow or cut grass...and I'm left mostly in peace..so they are really great... Edited 04-Aug-24 21:06pm

Yes i have neighbours. I am one of the homes on a cul-de-sac. I Dont see a lot of them but its great to know there someone close by. We have a coffee together now and again. One neighbour has three children and they like to have a chat about how school is going. It is very good to know we an all keep an eye open, and listen for any one calls for it. to be available if needed

My wife & I live in a 3 unit block,the first 2 units have single women,next door we have 2 units with single women in each,friendly but keep to themselves,I do most of sweeping up the length of the driveway seldom see the women doing any such chores but they are quiet no problems so it’s all good

My neighbors are a mixed bag. I live in a senior apartment complex. The building I live in is good but some of the other buildings don't have such good neighbors. The rest of the neighborhood would be quiet except a few blocks away there are people that shoot off fireworks year round. There are also kids that ride mini bikes in loops around the block running the stop signs all evening. And we get a lot of pedestrian traffic including homeless people and they dump trash by our sidewalk.

We have good neighbours our son he is within cooee! if we need him

I am not very social but I do have some lovely neighbours.

Moved from one state to another ,lived here for 10 years neighbours keep to themselves kids all go to same high school kids don’t mix,not the friendliest city sad to say ,

We live in a very small coastal community. My experience is that everyone keeps to themselves until they are needed. We all seem to pull together when it counts.

I lived in good neighbourhood. Not anymore. Suddenly it became a nightmare. A couple with soon 5 children moved in. The children are my good friends, but the father...he is a mental case. Loud, fool yelling at least 3 times a week. If he is really sick, I’m sorry for him but I’m afraid I’ll call out the police next time he starts his hysterical performance which effects his family and the whole neighbourhood. I told him so - he yelled at me, of course.

My neighbours are amazing

I use to, but now it's all to each their own, because of one new neighbour who can't keep her nose and dog out of everyone's business, I miss our community BBQs, and games nights.

Very good, we share home grown veggies, food and eggs

Pretty good neighbours haven't complained in a while but usually kept to myself

what a nice lot of neighbors you are lucky

I have really good neighbors and we also help each other out and share vegetables too

My neighbours are perfect, no noise and hardly ever see them

Yep. Have always had good neighbours

OK at the moment.

Yes, both sides are pleasant neighbours and helpful when needed

Delightful families on both sides and two more across the street from us. Never a problem in our 40 years here.

I live rural and don't know my next door neighbours much at all.

We have been here seven months and not met one neighbour yet

We finally have great neighbours after 32 years, Now if only they could curb the traffic..

We have had a mixture of neighbours over the years, some are still our friends even though they moved away years ago. Our neighbours now are are good. One side just wave although their son lived there before they did and he was much friendlier. We share fruit and vegie with our neighbours and keep an eye on each others homes when they are away

For the most part yes. But the newest ones that moved in are disrespectful, throw trash outside, and are just unneighborly. Then we have 1 corner house that's full of nose bags in everyone's business, except shining the light on their household. But like I said other than those 2, yes I enjoy where I live and who my neighbors currently are.Edited 04-Aug-24 13:36pm

Most of our neighbors are really great. Many of us own dogs, and we always greet them when our dogs playfully interact. However, the lady who lives right next to us does not have a dog, and has yelled at my husband when our dog peed on her lawn. When they first moved in they were very friendly and we would get together for drinks, etc,. Then something changed, and she doesn't speak to us at all, The husband is still cordial when we see him, but she never comes outside except when she is in her car. She used to plant flowers in her front yard, but this year, she doesn't do any gardening at all.Edited 04-Aug-24 13:36pm

No. Although 1 of my neihbours I can say hello to when walking our dogs that's about it.

we dont help each other shoveling snow but we do swim in each others pools

we dont have 3 good neighbors we have 3 good friends,very lucky to have them

YES! We've lived here for 44 years and most of our neighbors have been here for almost that long - all of them are friendly, willing to help and fun to spend time with!

I have nice next door neighbours now

Used to we had lovely neighbours that cared about the neighbourhood and everyone in it but slowly they left due to the high crime rate in our suburb. Now the new neighbours have chop shops in there yards with the streets lined with car's so our visitors have no where to park. If that is not bad enough the noise and the smell of the spray paint stops us from opening our windows some days. Now that we have retired we are moving to as the old suburb is just not the same.

Mostly good only one is a problem

Terrible neighbours. Moved into a small town (population 202) and learnt on moving day just how nasty they are. Was greeted with threats to kill my pets if they get out, complaints over overhanging tree branches, complaints of the colour of my house, nosiness to extremes I've never encountered before, ( eg. climbing a ladder to look over the 6 foot fence I installed at my own cost) and are under constant surveillance by cameras. I'm not interested in small town gossip and keep to myself, therefore becoming the subject of it until something new comes along.

Yes

NO! I am in the middle of a feud going on between a male neighbor on my right and a male neighbor on my left. I am the peaceful one and our postal carrier will no longer deliver mail to my house, due to this. She even knows they are the ones setting spikes in front of each other's homes on our road. Very unfair! I have to drive 20 minutes to get to our post office in our rural town. I live on the high plains/prairie on a rural road. Very inconvenient, costly to me, and some online retailers and freebie offers will not deliver to PO Boxes! Aargh! Edited 04-Aug-24 12:00pm

Yes, We have lovely neighbours. Always friendly and helpful.

Yes they are good, helped us out when we needed help. We were told every one keeps to them selves out here so we generally do just that. I used to look out for an elderly lady called Claire. I miss our chats and she had an amazing garden at the back of her house. Her husband put in for her. She would be long gone now but I hope her garden is still there. My parents a little while ago got new neighbours and they aren't as friendly or as nice as the old ones. The old ones always looked out for them and they would puppy sit for them. To say Thank you she would buy them a dinner voucher for the restaurant in the harbour and flowers and chocolates. They are missing them very much. I used to like knowing they were there for them at least.

So your neighbours are good because they give you things? How shallow! I have great neighbours who breathe air like me.

To the lefy are renters. Quiet and polite. To the right are new buyers that are quite helpful. Across the street, I have no idea.

Not really as good you but if your neighbour needs help we always lend a hand.

I live in a good neighbourhood too. We help each other out and watch each other's homes when anyone is out, taking note of any suspicious cars or activity. It tends to be part and parcel of living in a more regional or rural area.

Our neighbours are kangaroos, rabbits, three rescued cows and four rescued lambs. Plus the benefit of a variety of birds. It doesn’t get much bett than that

Have had some terrible ones in the past but now all is good. Our family live next door and all other neighbours are great. Glad this is our last move.

Yes there great

I have one neighbor that I knew from grade school so we get along great! They have mowed my lawn since I moved here because our yards are connected, and they want it all looking cohesive! I pay them, of course, but they don't want anyone else mowing. Now their great-grandson, who lives with them, is old enough to mow for me. That's caused a bit of an issue because he gets the money for the work, but they get no money for the gas. Now I give him a little extra to give to them for gas! I appreciate all they do, but their health is failing, and I feel bad for them. The home across from me is for sale so I hope I get good neighbors in there. I don't think anyone with children is allowed in this area, and everyone is older and unable to help each other. Some are friendly; some I never have met. However, I love how it used to be back in they day like you described. With the way the country is going, I think we need to go back to that more than ever! I've always been a huge fan of the barter system whether it is material things or labor! Great question. I regret that I'm not able to do much, but I do things that I can. If they need advice or computer help, I can do that, but I don't cook or bake now so I can't give much, but I do love them, and their grandchildren love me and come to visit. That means the world when you are alone with no family. The boy runs out when I come home to help carry things in! Kids can be awesome if you treat them with respect and demand respect in return. I hope I have set a good example and am teaching t hem about life!

Mine are great. On one side he mows my lawns for me, the other side she is lovely, unfortunately her husband died recently which was hard on all of us since I've known them for many many many years. As I live at the top of a court I get to see all the comings and goings of everyone. But we all talk and help each other out. I wouldn't change them for anything. Just as well they like pets especially cats.

My neighbors are not good one has dog that barks all day and night and the other cooks horrible smelling food. If not they are mowing and I have allergies and always smells like grass unless of course it is raining. No sunshine day without noise of some kind hammering, drilling, barking or mowing.

Do sheep and cows count?

no, but they keep to themselves.

yes extremely good neighbors....I have 8 of them....

yes are good friends helping each other my Neighbour is old my hubby mows her lawn keeps a eye on her

We greet each other but seldom share goods.

Some yes some not so much.

I have the best neighbours I have ever had. We all get along, co-operate, solve issues as and if they arise and do it without rancour, bitterness or threats. Its a pity our warmongering, genocidal, infanticidal politicans, from all sides and all countries could not follow our example.

Just moved in in the last 6 months. So far so good.

My neighbours are the best!! I am a disabled senior. My neighbours keep my lawn mowed and my walk shovelled. They are only a call away when my basement floods, or my furnace quits or...... I am blessed.

The best neighbours one could hope for,

I don't live with good neighbors in my neighborhood at all, which they think about theirselves.

I moved into over 50's retirement complex and my neighbors have keep dropping over housewarming gifts is absolutely incredible I come home and there's always stuff at my door my neighbors are amazing

We do what we can to help our neighbors and they reciprocate. They are friendly and courteous

Mostly yes

Neighbours are great but don’t go that far!

We have amazing neighbors who live next door. They are so friendly and always up for a conversation.

NO

Diverse

yes

No I don't generally have good neighbours.

Cannot comment as I have a moat.Edited 04-Aug-24 12:30pm

My husband and I have been in the same house for 26 years. We have seen a lot of neighbours come and go on both sides. Our most recent neighbours on the left side used to mow our front footpath at times. My husband would also mow their front footpath at times. One of our neighbours on the other side talks to us and comes over to our place periodically. Our back neighbour let us know recently when there was a security issue. It is good when you have neighbours and are neighbours that do things for each other,

I have a wonderful group of neighbours, we are all here if anybody needs us, but we don't live in each others pockets. We have get togethers three or four times a year. We are a really great community.

Mine the same. They are all very friendly, they are there when I need them. Blessed with good neighbours!😀

Great Neighbors to my Left of my House The Husband even helped me when my shih-tzu was dying and his wife even offered me a job in the same department of hers. Both are veterans and even watch over our house whenever someone they don’t recognize To protect me from a man who SA’ed me and Robbed me. I love them!

great neighbours we share produce etc but leave each other to their peace and quiet

Wonderful neighbours all around, helping each other all the time.

Either side of me, yes.

I have a great neighbor who mows my grass and takes my garbage bins to the street. Since I am handicapped this is a great help and he is reluctant to accept gas money or a gift card.

Yes we have good neighbors

Yes. I live in an apartment. He brings me food and things regularly. He watches over my place while I am on holiday. In return, I’ll get him some groceries. I will also get him souvenirs after my holidays. And we meet for tea almost every week.

I live in a small block of apartments, 2 of my neighbours are lovely, genuine people; we regularly chat and help each other, and my dog loves to go and say hi to them, and then the new guy who moved in just doesn't gel with the rest of us so we leave him to his own devices. Not everyone is your tribe

We live in a rural area and we have one neighbor so it is very quiet. They are really nice elderly neighbors and unfortunately his wife passed away recently.

We respect each other’s privacy, however when in need, we are a supportive community…

Some good a couple are nuisance and a few ok
