A good neighbor gives you your space but is also friendly in passing. Good neighbors are willing to help when asked (as long as the requests are reasonable and and infrequent). If he sees something troubling (such as if your dog got loose), he would go out of his way to help.
I agree with you. Thank you for the answer Audrey Baker.
Fences make the best neighbors, and sometimes a 6 foot tall privacy fence makes even a better neighbor.
I agree with Aubrey Baker. We have terrific neighbours, one chased a burglar who had an axe ! I'd rather be burgled than have someone seriously injured, or worse, thankfully it worked out fine.The neighbours are there if there's a problem, or will mind small pets if we're away. They are not nosey or intrusive. I hope they think the same of us. We take in parcels, catch loose dogs, and lend candles during power cuts.
That's write. Thank you for your answer innerspin.
For me a good neighbor cares about and keeps their property neat and kept up. Personally they are friendly from a distance, a wave and a hello, but for the most part are quiet and private like we are.
Absolutely right. Thank you so much for the answer.
For me a perfect neighbor is one I don't see, hear, or smell. I have no desire to be friends with my neighbors. I simply want to live a private life where I am not bothered every time I come outside.

Do you greet your neighbors every day in the morning?I greet my neighbors, both regular and never talk before neighbors in the morning by waving my hand. A gesture to begin friendly neighborhood even though no words are spoken. Do you do that?

Ice breakers for meeting your new neighbors?It's been almost a year since I moved into my new apartment and have met a few of my neighbors--including some of my floor. But I haven't met all of them. For the past two months, I did have to tell my neighbor at night-time around 10 PM-2 AM, that I can...

Do you and your neighbors help each other?My neighbor, with whom we don't speak much, is still kind enough to cut the grass in our front lawn. We do the same for him on occasion. How do you help your neighbors?

I have new neighbors, needless to say it has not started out as a good relationship as one of them said to me in all seriousness that he would kill my cat if he caught him in his yard again. They've been there a week, I've been here 7 years. I've never had problems with my cat in my neighborhood in...
