I wish my neighbors would keep their 3 dogs off my property. I've had to break up dog fights between them and other dogs more than once. One visiting dog had been pretty badly injured by them. I also don't like their dogs killing the rabbits and other wildlife on my property... At some point I may have to address this with them.
Having said that... I guess that the thing that most bothers me about neighbors is nosy neighbors.... i.e., people who don't mind their own business.
I don't want to live next door to Sanford & Sons or the Beverly Hillbillies kind of yards but homeowners most need to respect each other's property.
Wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone just minded their own business and treated others with respect?
Right on! that's at the top of my list too! Nosy neighbours.........soo nosy, they'd knock on the door and if you didn't answer they'd cup their hands around their faces and press their noses against the window pane........until you came to the door......God help you if your walkin around butt naked! Ha!
Shooting guns would bug me. Loose dogs bug me. Neighbors butting into my business on my own property bugs me. Everything else ... meh.

Why in the world would you want to sit in the back yard if you can sit out front, watch the world go by and greet your neighbors?

Heh. And bummer about those front yard parties drying up. Can I move to your neighborhood? Maybe we can start 'em up again.

When else are kids supposed to play? They're in school all day. Weekends are for kids, too, and playing is how people of all ages "relax." Try it sometime.

No yard cutting at 8am. Can't you wait until 10am???
Not if it's going to be 90 degrees by 10 a.m., but only 75 degrees at 8 a.m. I'd be out there, too.
It would annoy the hell out of me if my neighbors put up a flag(where we live it would B a mexican flag.)I didn't check that one however since I don't have a prob.w/American,Texan,or Confederate flags being flown,they R Amer.flags,&this is America after all.It's wrong 2 make the statement"this is Mex.or any other nations soil",when it's smack dab N the middle of America.We kicked the Eng.2x,we stomped the Mex.2x,&we gave the Union 1hell of a fight 4 our sovereignty.America 1st.!

My neighbor is British and her husband is American and they fly both flags. It never bothered me in the least as it is part of her heritage.

I believe 1 should B proud of their culture,but try living N a neighborhood/side of town where all U C is Mex.flags.Wouldn't U B a little upset if U were surrounded w/British flags.This is America 4 Gods sake,not Mex.Britian,Ireland,Russia,China,..!
What matters more to me is the character of my neighbors. Are they good neighbors? Do they do anything other than display a piece of cloth that's not to my taste? Do they try to spell the English language correctly when writing or do they use shortcuts? (That last one drives me absolutely nuts, editor that I am. I refuse to do it even when I AM texting!) There are much worse things that neighbors could be doing than a flag. Most of them none of my business, either.
Other things that bother me R our neighers belief N getting a puppy,&once it's grown & no longer cute,always leaving their gates open,letting their dogs have free run of the neighborhood.Most these dogs R pittbulls.This makes it unsafe 4 children playing N the street w/friends.If their dogs cause any mischief or Lord forbid bites someone,their dog is a stray & they say"No comprenda"! It's absurd!We currently have 4 pitts,2Rots,a boxer,couple of chow mix,sev.pitt mix,&a few mutts on our street alone!
