I live on a cul de sac street and have been here 30 years this month. I know by sight who lives on this street. Don't know their names, don't particularly dislike any of them but don't really want to be buddy buddy either. Every body seems to get along this way. OK by me.

Bought the house next to me my only neighbor. Him and her are go getters. They are the same age as my kids mid 30’s. She ignores everthing lol. Been 3 months ha. Ive talked to him twice for a minute, she stares at the concrete if I’m out and about. They got 3 kids 2 hers one themself married. I been told they are great peeps from what i see they work really hard trying to do it right, trying to raise a family today. I mowed his grass the first time after asking him he had a dead push mower at the time now his real mower is there a nice zero turn.
Ive lived next to boomers for 24 yrs here. This guy gets it and his wife, they are doing it right all is not lost. Why does she stare at the concrete when your out and about ? Maybe he walks around outside naked? all jokes aside, some women simply don't talk to men unless their husband is present. Many possible reasons for this. For some, it's just an old school (really way back) way. For some, it's jealousy issues of husband. For some, it's past experiences of hers from encounters with men.

Single family residences around here aren't the problem. Most people that own their homes keep to themselves. It's the rent houses that you have to watch out for.

Lived here 7 years.
Sorta talked to/know the guy behind me. He's former Navy nuke. Previous owner of my house let him keep his motorcycle in the garage till it sold. Came over day 1 to let me know he'd snag it up shortly. We wave rarely while mowing.
Met the guy across the street for the first time a few weeks ago - watching the weather come in with some NASTY storms we had.
That's it. Neighbors and as deep as I want to know them. I know people that drive by and live blocks away better.

I used to wear swim trunks and cowboy boots doing yard work. Mostly just to embarrass the kids. It worked, 100% of the time, every time.

My neighbors are on meth and pills and beat the hell out of each other at least twice a month. Spin tires, sling gravel, drop a wheel off into the septic tank, random gunfire at 2:13 AM.
But they don’t bother me
Still wouldn’t trade it for a “condo” or HOA or some other fág type arrangement even some on here live in. Like can’t hang a deer in the front yard. Yeah right
Now there is a Florida family 1/4 mile down. They have a passel of strange kids from Neptune and Uranus that graze thru my mailbox and flip me off when they see me. LOL They run from my white windowless Econoline tho

We only have one neighbor who is semi-close to our house.
She's a 300 lb. ol gal who wears a muumuu everyday. She lives by herself so we keep an eye on her. Which isn't hard to do being that she weighs as much as a small whale.

If you ever get to feeling sugary out mowing your yard, I bet she has a box or two of Little Debbies in there. She'll probably give you one of the Oatmeal Raisin Pies though.

There will be new neighbor on Thurs. Single guy that lives next door now, tells me a single woman with no kids in her 30's bought his place. Has zero concept of home ownership. He offered her the riding mower and snow blower, both for 1k. She turned it down. 3 acres to mow with a 50'x100' driveway to plow snow. She gonna regret not snapping them up.

Sucks to be you guys. I had a bad neighbor for years. Actually it was one bad one after another. But, I have a great one now, and he is much appreciated. He’s about 250 yards away, and I like that too.

Sounds like she is most likely equipped to provide services in exchange for mowing and snowplowing needs.
