Why don't people talk to their neighbors, anymore? Hell outside this area, do you people even wave at each other.

I still talk to my neighbors. Nextdoor lets me have a broader view of things across multiple adjacent neighborhoods, people that I would never get to "talk" to otherwise. Besides there's only maybe 10 households in my filing who are on Nextdoor, out of ~100.
Speaking of waving at other COAR members, I have yet to see another car with the COAR sticker(s) on it.
I make it a point to talk to my neighbors.. on the regular. I even loaned one a chainsaw.. AND got it back.
We constantly share beers.. and whiskey.. So out of my 'neighbors' I'm counting two houses in each direction... I talk to 4 on the regular. Got one of them to buy a few guns.. now just working on the others.
In the 4ish square miles that make up my neighborhood, there are over 500 homes and I don't drive down most of the 25-30 different streets. However, using this site allowed us to drum up support for more than one community neighborhood; the most important of which allowed us to get enough support to add speed bumps in some key areas, including my street. Traffic and speeds are WAY down now. Also, while I may not consider someone who lives a mile from me a neighbor, I'm still interested to hear if they are having their home broken into, especially when they have video.
I like my neighbors but we all chat via WhatsApp instead of Nextdoor. We do weekly bronco game get togethers, multiple block parties in the summer, golf tournaments, etc.
Nextdoor is full of whiny people.
