How well, if at all, do you know your neighbours?

I live in a cove. I know the people on each side of me somewhat, and the only other person I know is a man who lives two houses down from me. He came over when I moved in and told me him and his wife "like to keep it quiet", and yet he has all the parties. Just recently he had all the kids from his party out in the cove playing, and a woman with a wine glass and the wine bottle waving down my car yelling "paaartay!" I guess she was the babysitter.

I don't really know any of our neighbors apart from some facts:

neighbors in unit 10 smoke a lot of weed and don't know the meaning of volume control on their tv; some hussy who goes up there quite a lot has a bad habit of parking in my spot.

neighbor in unit 8 sounds like a dying whale when she has sex. according to unit 7 (two elderly people), unit 8 seems to be getting fatter and fatter without explanation.

there's also some person (possibly unit 6) who smokes a lot of Marlboro Light 100s (I'd know the smell from anywhere - my gram used to smoke them) and the stench seeps in through the kitchen.

I know most of the people on the block, at least to say hi to. The couple on one side of me are pretty nice. We watch their place when they're out of town and they watch ours. The elderly lady on the other side is very nice too, but her house is like a fucking hostel. There are constantly different people coming and going (and occasionally fighting in the street) and they generate an unbelievable amount of trash, which is kind of weird. The woman across the street is a pain in the ass who thinks she owns the block, has screaming breakdowns in the middle of the street, bums money off people constantly and hangs out on her stoop smoking weed and having loud conversations at all hours of the night.

I know my neighbors like I know my alphabet they contain 26 different personalities.

Yours sounds fun. It reminds me of a Spike Lee film from the 90s or Sesame Street

I have no neighbors, but ones who have a cottage they frequently visit. But they are over fifty and they have no children so they are kinda ok. Opposite to us is another cottage (or rather a villa) which is owned by some rich folks but we never see them. Other neighbors live over 200 meters away from us, so I think they don't qualify as neighbors at all?
