Do you have good neighbours?
Lynda, MBA04-Aug-24
I live in a good neighbourhood. We help each other out shovelling snow & cutting grass. We even share fruit & vegetables from our gardens. How are your neighbours?

      We live rural and have 3 immediate neighbours. The couple on the left (over the paddock) are in their 80s and are really friendly. We swap produce and we are always welcome in each others homes. The couple at the back of our property are our age group (50s) and we chat often and go to each other's homes for drinks and always invited to each other's parties. They are always asking us to come down for a swim in the summer, etc. He's a builder and helping us with a renovation project. The couple on the right over the driveway (our closest neighbours) are in their 60s and are a bit of a funny couple. We've only seen her twice in the 2 years we have been here. He waves out when he's mowing his orchard but we don't really talk much. They keep to themselves. One of their cats that they weren't looking after has adopted us so she is our outside cat now. Their chicken comes over to ours for food. She attached herself to our flock when we had chickens but they are gone now. She still comes over every day so we give her our scraps.

            Been in this neighbourhood 10 years and only made one friend who has moved away but we keep in touch. Neighbour next door occasionally mows my naturestrip which I do appreciate. Know 3 neighbours only by first name but beyond this info we don't communicate.

                          When we lived in town, we ended up having horrible neighbors. But now we live in a nice rural neighborhood & have wonderful neighbors! Help each other out & share what we can. Love it!

                            I have excellent neighbours. They are there if we need them but are not always around sticky beaking our business. Being elderly I know I can call on them if I need anything and during Covid it was great knowing they would be ready to help get supplies etc. When I am away I can ask them to keep an eye on my husband to ensure he is OK. They love our dogs and if one gets out I know he will be next door having a cuddle.

                              They're vocal sometimes, whiffy depending on wind direction, keep to themselves. But all in all I like my neighbours, they're (actual) cows.

                                I have a mixture, some are great neighbours, others not so much. But the great ones are always reliable for a chat and a glass of wine !

                                  Our neighbors are all pretty good. We all mostly keep to ourselves but if someone needs help the other usually pitches in. The guys behind us are non english speakers but they are the best neighbors. They keep their place nice and tidy on the outside, they are quiet and if they see me or my husband outside doing something difficult they come and help. We do the same of course.

                                      I want to live in your neighborhood! Now, my Christian Congregation does those things, and more, but my immediate neighbors, not so much. I live in a duplex village of 6, or 12 units, and I barely know my neighbors. I've had 4 different neighbors in 7 years in the unit next to mine! ;-(

                                                          People are pleasant enough but keep to themselves. It is not like it was many years ago when I moved in. People were more friendly. I love the neighborhood for its old houses and almost everyone has a dog. My dog is definitely in good company around here.

Her daughter and/or son in law comes over every day. The daughter chats alot. I mostly listen and support her. The nice neighbours on the other side have 2 children who I have watched grow up. We do dump drives for them to remove clutter from their yard. However the past winter the father with his son shovelled our driveway for the first time. Appreciated the kindness. Pure gift.

We only had one “problem” neighbor which I actually reported to the police late one night because he was having a very loud, bonfire party that was keeping everyone awake. What’s funny is that a few days later that same neighbor said “Can you believe that the people beside you had the cops come out and break up my party!” I was like “oh that’s just terrible.” 😂
