In some countries neighbors are poisonously disgusting about expressing distaste for things that shouldn’t be their business and extort your compliance by flaunting disapproval.
If you’re not home and the neighbor notices something suspicious happening at your house, they could call the cops/call you, or they could just pretend they didn’t see it because FU. If your mailbox is on the other side of the street in someone else’s lawn, they could weed whack carefully around it or they could “”“accidentally”“” damage the post every time. They could pick up their dog’s shit or they could send their dog over to use your yard. While all of those negative outcomes could be solved with security cameras and at worst a trip to small claims court, it’s still a hassle. Just depends on what’s worth more to you.
> you dont want the neighborhood hating you either
Care to elaborate why would you care in one sense or another?
neighbors can be helpful or they can be spiteful. id rather have neighbors be predisposed to be helpful but thats me.

yeah situations can vary from culture to culture or even neighbor to neighbor.
