Was his experience isolated to his neighborhood or is it widespread ? Being here only 4 times a year for a week at a time doesn't give me a true sense.

What is “neighborhood social?” Do you mean doing things together like golf or shows? I think moving to W. Palm has little to do with their immediate neighbors. It’s easier to find another neighborhood within TV than move to another part of the State. Clearly they didn’t find TV to be their cup of tea and they’re leaving. TV is not for everyone and thankfully so. If it were for everyone it would be vertical city with millions rather than 100k.
Curious, does it matter if the people on your block are sociable? I truly never cared if my immediate neighbors were social butterflies or hermits. We all have cars, my neighborhood is Central FL and within Cent. FL I can find people with like interests.
