Prolly they would first say : "We always wondered about the little tapping noises 24/7 and why that light was always on at night." BUT They might also say that they were grateful for the help cleaning up when the storm came through and wrecked their trees and barn and for the free apples and zucchini and rhubarb always there for the picking even when no-one is at home and they might say they appreciate the listening and the shoulder when they have cabin fever or need to talk to someone who is a non-relative who doesn't blab everything they hear.
least wise I hope so and they would no doubt add that they wonder why I think that shiny old CD computer disks suspended in trees counts as "yard décor" ! love it. you sound like a great neighbor. now wouldn't they be VERY surprised if you turned out to be a serial killer

Old drunk who keeps to himself, has a bad attitude, will scream obscenities if he feels he's not being treated fairly, amd holds a grudge.

Probably not, Nora There's been quite a few already from my neck of the woods so one more would probably be taken in stride..

My neighbors would say that we were anti-social since we don't socialize with them. But I would say the same about them. And I'm fine with that. I leave my neighborhood to do my socializing. Keeps things civil.

But I would be willing to bet they would have more to say other then you lived there. People tend to talk, regardless if they actually know something of substance or not. I can imagine they would describe you physically, describe how often you do/dont go out, how many times they have/have not interacted with you, if they ever saw you do any house chores or any activity other than walking in and out your door, what you looked like doing it, what you wore when they saw you, if you smiled/didnt smile, if you say hello first, or don't say it at all, if you are always alone or usually with someone, if you mostly keep to yourself or appear to be outgoing or social, what is their idea of your personality, if you ever did something unusual (that may not appear unusual to you) if you have curtains or keep the lights off, if they ever heard music from your place or the fact they never did, sometimes people will share even lack of things they know, especially when questioned about someone who might be a serial killer and is on the run.

Keeps things civil. have there been any attempts on either side to make the other side socialize with them? Very few. Its always been civil. But at this point I must conclude that they have the same mentality we do: A healthy distance keeps the bed bugs away.
