Define “know”. I know the woman downstairs from me and her dog. I know the couple actually the hall and their dog. They just had a baby and I don’t know the name. I know the guy down the hall from me. He’s a good guy. I know the woman down the hall the other way and the guy on the same side. The other two units are rented on and off. New people. I forgot the name of the two folks that just moved in. Haven’t met the ones on the other side yet.

Knowing names and small things? Is that to know someone?

There are over a million people within 15km of me, so that’s not much.

People? Some, but not a lot. Dogs, though? I recognize every dog on my street and know most of their names, even some of the ones I’ve never met lmao

I just moved to a new country but I already have a friendly relationship with neighbours on both sides, one being a family of 4, and the other is an old widow. All pretty lovely. ❤️👍

This is a rural area, so more than I’d like.

I mean, we wave and say hi as we pass each other, but maybe only a couple to really talk to. (I’m not counting the woman a half mile from my house with whom I worked for several years; didn’t find out til later that she lives down the street.)

I know most of their dogs’ names, though.

To many all my neighbors are flag waving Trump supporters. I am glad to hear one is moving but he probably sell to another trumper. I want to move so badly but can’t afford that right now.

I know all the people in my apartment building and the members of my wind band. My city is smallll.

Several dozen? But I live in the city, so that’s a fraction of my total neighbors.

Basically no one, all my friends live in a different part of the city.

We used to live in the same neighbourhood as children, but the housing scarcity really fragments people. Because everyone just takes whatever flat they can find and afford.

I don’t really know anyone here. I know some names. I’ll say hi to anyone I pass. People here seem to go for walks but seem to think it’s polite to cross the street if they see another person. Tbh, I would pick another place to live if everything else was the same and social climate was warmer.

i know one of my neighbors very well because he’s a dipshit who can’t keep to himself and calls the cops on people frequently and makes passive aggressive comments everytime you see him.

I also get to hear him fight with his daughter and his wife, which explains why he’s always outside his house and never inside it. His wife is also a psycho who attacked me once when I was putting out the garbage.

I don’t know any of my other neighbors, because they are decent folk that leave me alone.

All of the adults in the surrounding area, some of the younger ones. In rural Japan, that’s fairly normal, though.

Guy next door is called Forest. He is a groundskeeper.

Zero. I don’t even know who lives in my building or floor. I have said “hello” to a couple of them, when they happened to be in the stairwell at the same time.
