Yes, we do. Pretty well, in fact. But, we live in the country where knowing your neighbors is more a part of life than it is in more urban surroundings.
We have a couple that lives next door that are probably 10 years older than us. We are quite friendly with them and often exchange produce and favors.
The guy who owns the land surround us and our neighbors is really nice. We've met him twice - he operates a bison ranch and lives up the road a ways.
The couple who own the berry farm across the street are probably about our age and we've only exchanged pleasantries with them occasionally. We don't even know their names. They have 4 young boys and since we don't have kids, there isn't a lot of opportunities for socializing.
When we lived in NC we lived in a suburban neighborhood and we barely knew two sets of neighbors even though we were surround by TONS of them.
Same thing when we lived in suburban Florida.
