    Houses in my neighborhood are selling as soon as they hit the market, and yes, my neighbors are real people and are actually the homeowners. The family that just moved in next door are immigrants, the wife is a manager at a logistics center and her husband works nights at the local Amazon warehouse.

      Wait…you live in an area where people own their own homes, and talk to their neighbors???

      My neighbor moved in 15 years ago. I had no idea until 6 years ago. Still haven’t talked to him, or know his name. I just know sometimes he wears green shirts.

      I hope he has family and loved ones. If he got hit by a bus, I’d hate for his obituary to read

      “He was a quiet neighbor, who sometimes wore green shirts. One time he had a dog, but I think he was just dog watching for a friend. Beautiful dog though. Golden retriever, healthy full coat of fur.”

        That’s Dave. I’d steer clear unless you’re into Warhammer 40k
