We had a nice young man to the north of us who sold his house a year ago. The family who rented it from the new owner just moved out, thank goodness. They tried, but the son-in-law and the "grandpa" (wife's father) did not get along, plus grandpa was arrested a few times for possession, we now find out, and even asked my diabetic son-in-law if he had any spare needles one time! They did try to stop all outdoor noisy activities by 10p and the oldest child, a boy of seven was very polite.

The ones to the south of us are okay, but I hope they never get another dog. They do not care for them well enough, imo.

The folks across the street are very nice - there in a pinch, but very non-intrusive. I wouldn't want them in my house, all chummy-like, but they are good people.

The best thing about where we live, is our lot is BIG, 82' across by 172' deep. We don't even see the folks in the back. I see new subdivisions going in with prices starting at nothing less than $150,000 and they have NO yard, NO space; everything is insulated, meant to spend all of their time inside and never get to know their neightbours.
