If your neighborhood is threatened in any way, it is possible to find out some important things about your neighbors. Do they bury their head in the sand? Do they embrace the enemy, or do they join with you to appose the threat?
If you have a party, do they show up with something home made to eat, a bottle of wine or Entenmann's Donuts? If either one of you do something that could be construed as unneighborly - play music too loud late at night, have a dog that barks early on Sunday morning, or a cat that eats your birds, can you speak to your neighbor about it without coming to blows? All the most basic human interactions begin between neighbors.
