Pleased to say I still live in an old fashioned village community.
I know my neighbours, their kids, their parents, in-laws & out-laws
The downside is that you can't sneeze without someone noticing.........and before you know it.....you are at death's door with some endemic disease don't you know lol
The upside is, everyone looks out for each other.
It's quaint, but I like it.
