Neighbors are caring. In time of need they reach out.to you ( e.g last hurricane - my neighbor came over to find out if I needed anything and whether she could help with clearing of the debris. When I moved in the area one neighbor came over to welcome me with a plant. I was also asked to join the community meetings
