A lot of the people in my neighborhood are actually pretty friendly, in an idealized-small-town sort of way. But I live in one of those "scary" "inner-city" neighborhoods with The Blacks™ and The Gays™ and whatnot, so it's a little different for me.
Meanwhile, my Boomer parents, who live out in the suburbs, complain that their subdivision has gone completely to Hell. Funny, that.
