Real good neighbors look at each other. They seek advice and help, especially on issues that affect larger communities. They respect each other's boundaries, but are quick to help in a crisis. They look for opportunities to cooperate and socialize. Great neighbors make great communities. This is a great effort.

I guess for you to become a good one, you need to mingle them icely or treat them in a  nice way. Be helpful, kind, and understanding to your neighbor and show respect to them also.

i think it is great to give to your neighbors little presents for holidays. For example i gave them little plates with christmas trees to this christmas
This is not applicable to every country especially when there is a high crime rate, don't get me wrong because i really appreciate if someone present me a gift from a random neighbor around our block but this doesn't mean that i should not skeptical as what is he/she has given.
being a good neighbor should be build up, it's not a one time deed.

A good neighbor needs to have some features like that, respect the neighbors,use good with neighbors,Finding the good and evil of the neighrors-take the news. If needed, help the neighbor. Do not let the neighbors suffer. I think this quality is a good neighborly feature.

I learned that Being on bad terms with your neighbour can make your life frustrating, day after day. But taking the time to establish good terms with your neighbours has numerous benefits. The community will be friendlier, the neighbourhood safer, and the area a nicer and more comfortable place to live.
So I took my time to look at this,  what I did the first time I moved into my new apartment.

1. I make sure I introduce myself in a friendly manner to my neighbors.
2. I tried to know their lifestyle and how how we can communicate freely.
3. Limit myself from been extremely close to them. Knowing how and when to discuss about a particular topic in the society.
This really help me keep my integrity till now.
I keep building a good neighborhood and society with them.


I wouldn't put so much effort into it. Just be frendly when you see them if they don't seem to be in a hurry small talk a bit. If you see that you understand each other call them for a coffee.

that no one can say against you and against what way of living we have
 live simple and happy this would be the good example to the other specially when they are in time feel so sad.

There is only one rule on what to do to be a good neighbor. DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE. Just be civil with everyone, no need for fake pleasantries, believe me, people can see through that. You don't need to "click" with them immediately. That takes time to develop.

Now if only my neighbors would care enough to lower the noise from their house and their dog. I'd hate to poison a dog and burn down a house.  Grin

In my place to be a good neighbor this is usually the thing to do, often active in environmental activities around your neighborhood  such as of cleanliness and beauty of the environment so that can be established a good cooperation  and can get to known with your neighbors.
We should be particularly interested in how to be good neighbors. So our neighbors can become good too.

Anyone can be a good neighbor, it is thier own choice or it is our choice to be that kind. Helping your neighbor is a good deed. Its a human act and a practices of a good Christian. This kind of characteristic will help our community and society to build harmonious relationship towards other and a good foundation of a strong nation somehow.
Good neighbors are very valuable. "Better a close neighbor than a distant brother.

I hate noise , so What I care is noise etiquette rules:

If you live in an apartment building, don’t holler to someone at the other end of the hall.
There is no reason to hammer a nail on a common wall that you share with the apartment next door past 8:00 at night. It can wait until the next day.
Mowing the lawn at 7:00 on a Saturday morning will not endear you to your neighbors. Wait until at least 10:00.
Don’t honk your horn every time you pull into your driveway. Your family will find out you are home soon enough.
Sitting outside on a warm summer night with your spouse or friend is wonderful, but if your house is on a small lot, and the neighbor’s bedroom window is close, it’s rude to hold a long conversation on the back porch past 10 p.m. Take it inside so your neighbor can sleep.
Avoid all unnecessary noise from any source from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m.. This includes revving car engines, children riding scooters, loud voices, and whatever else may wake someone from a sound sleep.

Being a good neighbor doesn't always mean giving something to all your neighbors. It can be a form of community service every once in a while, being sensitive to the needs of your neighbors, greeting them a "good morning" when they pass by, etc. Being a good neighbor also means doing something for them for their own good. Even though there will be times that when you do something for them, they will not agree with you. Talk things through and communicate to understand each other better.

Don't talk too much or be too inquisitive. Greetings are enough and basic formalities. Offer a helping hand if needed but live your life and largely concentrate on your own stuff. It works!

Do not be self centered. Think of your neighbor's welfare not just your needs. Maintain a harmonious and peaceful relationship for the sake of everyone's safety and sound living.

When I get married and moved to my husband’s place, I was excited to meet new faces. Our neighbors are my husband’s relatives and my husband gladly introduce me to them. Afterwards, I made my way through their hearts and these are the things I did to be a good neighbor to them.

1.   I introduced myself more to them, like about where I took my college, about my family, and about my work. I want them to know that I am willing to be their friends.
2.   Every time there was an occasion, such as my birthday or my husband’s I invited them all. I made sure that they would come to celebrate with us.
3.   I never talked ill things about them to other people. If I notice not pleasant about them I just keep it to myself. I never talked to my husband about it also.
4.   I always maintain our relationship in a friendly manner, not too close but always friendly.
