I had a sound expert tell me that if water can come through a barrier so can sound so landscaping doesn't stop sound; it's more of a psychological barrier. Be aware what you say when outside or in public places.

Spot on! Maybe that's why our neighbors aren't chummy with us and vice versa! I know SO much info about our neighbors that they would never discuss with others. Cell phone conversations, regular conversations, disagreements, and SEEING people pick body areas like no one can see them (hello guys). No, we don't have kissing lanais, but just have neighbors lanais or windows nearby close enough to hear and see what I'd rather not.
