We moved to a our current house from an older CYV area and those neighbours were very congenial also.

We find that we tend to hang out more with friends than neighbours. Friends that we've met through clubs, the dog park, totv, special interests like mahjong, motorcycles, etc.

As a rule, I find Village people are incredibly friendly. Most have moved "from away" themselves and welcome new faces. It's hard to go to the pool or out to dinner without making new friends. It's all good.

We have our eyes on a Courtyard Villa and I worry that might make it harder to meet new people although my DH hangs out in the garage a lot with his saw.
