In today's world knowing and being friends with your neighbors is difficult. People tend to not be as friendly as they use to be. There are not more neighborhood get togethers or BB Q's. It is difficult if you need something or need help to go next door or across the street to ask your neighbor.
There are even situations where there is dislike for neighbors for various reasons (sometimes the reasoning's are ridiculous, but that is another story). It even gets so bad that you are worried about what kind of people they are and are afraid to interact or allow your children to have contact with them or their children.
Society today has everyone afraid of who may be coming around. From the burglary's all the way to the sex crimes; we are so afraid to associate with anyone that we don't know a complete history on. It makes living life a little harder when we have to start thinking twice about people who live next door.

This is spot on. My neighbors are, well, not exactly model citizens. It's scary the type of people in this world sometimes!
That's true, I don't even know any of my neighbors. You sum up your feelings about other people and society well.
