Do you like your neighbors?

I ignore most of my neighbors and vice versa. There are some who have lived here longer than my family and they look down on us, but more and more of our neighbors are newer and younger people. The only time they talked to us was to ask if we saw anything suspicious going on around their apartment because someone broke in and cleaned them out.

After several years of mostly rude and inconsiderate neighbors, we finally have some nice ones living in the other half of our duplex, and it sure makes life more pleasant. It's nice to know they are trustworthy, too. Some of our past neighbors seemed like the type of people who might steal from us if given the chance. That was unsettling.

we pretty much keep to ourselves...nosey neighbors

I like our new neighbors. They are respectable and polite. We have had some really frightful experiences in the past with neighbors in both the places we have lived together. I was very resistant to the new neighbors because of this fact. They kept reaching out though and showed me how benign and civil they were, so I let down my guard a bit. It is a joy to be home now.

I have the strangest feeling that I would like them much, much more... if they were not my neighbors... enough said ;)

Our neighborhood is really nice. We know everyone in about a 3-4 house radius, and get along well with them all, including the people behind us and across the street.

pandora.. that's what my parent's neighborhood is like.

When my fiance and I moved into our new home, our next door neighbors left a nice note in our mailbox. We don't speak often to them, but they are always very friendly and keep an eye on our place. It's not something I was expecting, but it is rather nice.

I'm not interested in having a relationship with my neighbors.

my downstairs neighbor is my sister. I know the names of one or two other neighbors and wave to them from time to time.

I live in a dorm. That means I clicked on just about every box! (we don't get out for another couple of weeks.)

Liking my neighbors became much harder after they broke into my house.

Robin: totally understandable, but it's not exactly as though they were after your television set...

It's a nice relationship.. I don't talk to them--- They don't talk to me..:)

i don't know my neighbours

My sister feeds their cat when they're out of town.

I'm interpreting neighbors to mean the folks who live in nearby houses, and not the folks in my house.
When I first moved in here, I threw a housewarming party and went up and down the block delivering printed invitations to it, 'cuz I wanted to meet my neighbors and make them feel welcome and stuff. A few of them came and we chatted a bit, but it didn't work terribly well... we mostly ignore each other.
A new couple moved in next door last year who always say hi to me, but I'm embarassed to note that I don't even remember their names...

dpolicar - That's just the interpretation intended by the survey creator, unless there are seperate "units" in the house where you live. Kind of sad that people would rather not take the time to be friendly, isn't it? I guess times are changin'. At least you tried to be nice.

The older couple next door are quite nice and they even get our mail when we are out of town. The dudes across the street from us are a little crazy with the parties and stuff and the guy on the other side of the house makes me a little nervous, I think he's a peeping tom. The people who live in the same house as us are cool. They are a Russian couple in the and one one floor and a single, black lady on the the other. We never see each other except when we all are rushing to work each morning. They all catch the T up the street.

I just moved from a place filled with obnoxious and insane people. So now I like the fact that my new neighbors are barely noticeable.

I have neighbors, but I don't know them. I have never talked to them in my whole time of living where I do!! :)

There is an elephant living upstairs who goes out drinking every night at about eleven o'clock THUMP THUMP THUMP BLAM, THUMP THUMP THUMP BLAM and then comes home at about three o'clock THUMP THU MPT HUMPB LAMTHU MPTH UMP THUM PBLAM. And they refuse to show any courtesy with respect to parking in the driveway.

Oh, dear, I think I just gave the spellchecker a hernia.

drdt LOL

I don't think I would like to be especially close to my neighbors. If I can't have the physical distance I need the emotional distance to preserve my privacy.

Here in the dorm, I can take them or leave them. At home, there is really only one other house that I would call my neighbors. And they suck. We were warned about them before we bought the house.
