Only tangentially related to your comment, but I've always found that people who live in dense environments complain about their neighbors less than those who have more space. People who have an acre or five of land see to ALWAYS be annoyed at whatever their neighbors are doing!
Maybe it's selection bias.
I couldn’t disagree more. I’d be interested in any sort of evidence, or something, to expand on your claim. I have lived in various areas that fit that description my entire life, never experienced annoyed neighbors or heard 3rd party complaints, etc.
