my neighbors are all right
on one side it's an older couple that's lived in this neighborhood since the house was built
on the other side it's a couple my parents' age and their kids (well, not anymore, the kids have all moved out now), and they're just good ol' blue-collar rednecks, drinking and smoking and having fun
my neighbours downstairs are pot-addled hippies and are pretty nice. They hang out with an artist who lives in the next building. If my german was better I'd probably try to make friends with them.
Otherwise I have a sweet little old lady, a middle-aged dude who rides a bicycle and seems nice, and the shit-heel son of the landlady who dobs us in if we don't shovel the doorstep within half an hour of it snowing.
I never speak to my neighbors under any circumstances
I sometimes hear scurrying above me, but I've never seen evidence of a dog or other animal. I can only assume that my upstairs neighbor's primary means of locomotion involves skritching her nails across hardwood floor
He started asking me about upgrading his computer though, so I'm going to start avoiding that fucker. No way I'm doing that for him.
There used to be a dude that lived a couple floors down. He was getting his GED or something, and kept bringing his practice tests up to me so I could check his answers. He passed!
There's an indian family that lives in this complex. Around dinner time, there are the most delicious smells coming from their apartment.
Previous neighbors were a single mom and her college son. The son had a girlfriend that was sometimes staying with them or something? And they'd get into late night shouting matches outside of our apartment.
And the mom one time tried to convince us to sign up for some time-share money seminar dealie while she was drunk as hell.
New guy seems like it's just one guy, mid to late 20s, quiet, we've only seen him maybe once or twice.

My neighbors are foreigner who never fail to treat me and my friends and fellow neighbors like shit, and emit loud noise disturbances frequently.
Plus they've almost set my house on fire two years in a row on the 4th of July. They're pretty much one of the contributing reasons why I plan on moving after next month.
There was a fairly trashy family that used to live here.
Once, their baby was choking on something.
Instead of doing something useful, they were out back screaming their heads off while holding the kid up by his arms and walking him around.
I was like... what the hell you idiots. 911.
I'm not 100% sure that kid lived.

We're on friendly hello terms with our neighbors. One of them I used to work with at the airport, the other is a guy who plays funky music a lot. They both smoke a lot of pot but the smell doesn't seep into my apartment at all so I don't care. There are some people that live at the end of the building that I don't know, there's a guy with a dog that I try and say hi to but he seems grumpy. The nosy old lady at the other end of the building is moving, she's nice but you can easily get stuck talking to her for 20mins while slowly inching away.
my neighbors are nice but there are like five of them in one house and they all have a car and they park basically all of them on the street instead of their enormous driveway so leaving my driveway is a pain.
to the other side I used to have neighbors that had a really loud dog that was howling for a couple hours every day and that was not cool. I was gonna ask them to train their dog like decent people but I didn't because I am a coward and then they moved so that's a victory for Whyther.

We've never really spoken to our neighbors, though the few times we have they seem nice. One of our neighbors that has a bedroom next to ours has a ridiculously loud snore, though. Like, loud enough to be heard through walls and not sound muffled at all.
Apparently one of our neighbors' kids told Rachel that Anya was 'too tiny'.

So, you're saying that they're hot-blooded?
Or maybe they're just playing some sort of head games?

They just want to know what love is.

My neighbors one one side are assholes who don't know how to park. There's extra tension now because our association sent them pictures that I had taken from my doorstep, so they know that I'm the one who reported them. They no longer park terribly, but they don't really talk to me anymore (not that I really care).
My other neighbor is pretty cool. She is a nurse so works crazy nurse schedule, she also has a really barky dog but is really friendly!
My back neighbor (our back yards touch butts) is also really nice. 2 for 3 ain't bad.
I never knew my neighbours when I was living away from home.
At home there's creepy guy next door and his stuck up bitch wife and their crazy kids. On the other side is the son of our old neighbour who passed away and his sister. They're nice.
Oh and we've got an older couple that lives on the first floor that are pretty cool and chat with Lady SH and have invited us over to watch sports stuff and drink wine and whatnot. I think the guy is a coach over at one of the PGA golf courses.

I moved a few months back, and my roommates introduced me to some of our upstairs neighbors, who seem okay- an assortment of twenty-something waitresses and the like. I think 90% of my interaction with them was the time I helped them get a mattress up the stairs. Other than that whoever's next door plays heavy bass music occasionally, and has a patio in their backyard which has turned it into a hive of rats, and that's all I know about them.
My neighbors are a church and an old lady who I really don't care for because she is obsessed with trying to move her property line like ten feet onto ours. To the point where she will mow our lawn and complain about tire tracks in OUR grass ( our driveway is kind of small and we have four cars so parking is a problem.)
I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.
Across from us we've got a couple slightly younger than us who are pretty decent. We're not great acquaintances, but we'll say hello in the grocery store or whatever.
Behind us we've got a 3 generations under one roof household, so there are a pile of them, they're always in the backyard, and they've just acquired a very whiny, crying dog.
Next door we have an extremely elderly couple. They were okay when we first moved in, and I'd occasionally sit down with them if I happened to be out doing yardwork while they were on their patio or whatever. The dude's been in a bad way health wise for years though, and invariably every conversation now either involves him not understanding what you're saying, or wanting to talk about his myriad of medical issues. The worst thing you can do is unthinkingly utter the line "How's it going?" Because unlike most folks who springboard that into some small talk, he'll immediately go into how his cancer hurts, or his heart's failing, or what have you.
I've got all the sympathy in the world for the dude, but man, we are just neighbours. I don't know what to tell you or how to respond to that. I'd be hard-pressed to carry on that conversation with direct family members, much less some guy I see a total of about two hours in a year.
Ambulance has been by to pick him up like four times so far this year. So I keep expecting the worst, but then I'll see him on his porch or whatever still ticking along.
The best part about him is that when we first met him, he introduced the woman living with him as his girlfriend. There's an equivalence in adorableness between an 80 year old dude having a girlfriend, and like a young kid. It is equally cute at either end of the spectrum.
Oh, we do have one more neighbour. The train tracks. I think the train tracks might be the best neighbour.

I wonder if my neighbours have noticed a correlation between the amount that they bang on the floor when I'm watching television and occurrences of me leaving One More Time by Daft Punk playing at full volume on repeat for the entire weekend.
My neighbours are all old school Greek or Italian farmers. Nice enough people but most of them are tighter than a fish's arsehole.
I have learnt to just never do any work for them and we get on sweet
In town I'm next to a young bloke and his grandad. I helped them build their patio a while ago so we're tight. Old grandad doesn't speak a word of English and I don't speak Vietnamese so we just play an elaborate game of charades whenever we see each other out and about
The other neighbour used to be this really nice solo mum and her two kids but she's moved around the block now. The new guys listen to dubsteb and hip hop all day and all night. Luckily that kind of thing just doesn't faze me much and I'm not really there much anyway. I helped him find his dog one time so we get on fine
Neighbour relations is a delicate balance. On one hand, you want to be friendly enough that they'll watch your house and maybe water your lawn while you're out of town. On the other hand, you don't want to get sucked into each other's lives because if something goes wrong an you have a falling out? Hooo boy

I only see him like once a month as we both leave the house at the same time (which is rare for both of us) and we say hi and go about our business
he drinks Coke Zero
I can't remember his name. I think it's Chris
We don't hang out although he seems cool
we also talk about other random shit and clown upon each other
maybe if they were a group of hot babes..

good times in my working class neighborhood

I grew up in a small village, it was okay, some things were very frustrating like the lack of any public transport
Once, their baby was choking on something.
Instead of doing something useful, they were out back screaming their heads off while holding the kid up by his arms and walking him around.
I was like... what the hell you idiots. 911.

sticking your finger down your baby's throat to fish something out is like
half of parenting right there
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.

my next door neighbor is a grad student I think? I think she either TAs or even teaches a class.
I was a jerk to my upstairs neighbor once. I also have another upstairs neighbor who helped me move some stuff.
There's a guy down at the end who is old and...polish or something? He tried to say something to me and I couldn't understand what he was saying.
That's pretty neat I think
