When we get together with our neighbors several times a month for organized socials, I don't even think about how old or young people are!
Age doesn't matter to us. What matters is if they are friendly or aloof, happy or grouchy, have a sense of humor or are humorless, are gossipy or accepting of everyone, or if they are condescending or humble. Those traits come out in all age groups.
I'm surprised at prejudice toward people here in their 40s and 50s! Our neighbors in their 70s and 80s are young at heart with a zesty attitude. They don't resent neighbors in their 40s or 50s!!
