When we moved here two years ago we initiated a driveway meet and gave to flyers to our entire neighborhood (150 rooftops). We had about 50% show up but from that first meeting we had someone establish our presence on Nextdoor which was a great communications tool. We now have a meet and greet every quarter at Manatee plus individuals do driveway parties, lunches. Not everyone shows up for everything but if you are in a new neighborhood put it out to everyone you can, since it's a BYOB, snacks and chairs....why not?
