I'm a pretty good judge of character and if I feel someone is going to be high maintenance then I disengage and just keep to a civil "Hello" and smile. But 9 times out of 10 it's been good and it's nice to know everyone in my building. We sort out the post and keep any eye on their flat if they are away. But I know most of my friends don't do this so I must be weird. :) Wherever I’ve lived I’ve made an effort to get to know my neigbours and overall it’s been a positive thing.

Like the closer you are stacked, the more you need to ensure that your personal space is kept. But...YAY! It’s weird, with apartments, condos.

I like to keep to myself, I'm not a neighborly type. I always assumed this is the same for most people in apartments, except for the ones who make the move to be friendly. Once that guy starts trying to borrow your Dr. Who DVDs, you may be sorry you said hello, but otherwise, I wouldn't worry about it. :) Honestly, I’ve had two apartments since 1994, and I’ve never really known any of my neighbors except for the ones who made the move to know me.
