Neighborhood houses are just too close together.
I live in a fairly nice neighborhood, and we have a fence around the back yard, but I sometimes wish we had a fence around the front yard, too.
I really hate going in the front, I sometimes don't want to see the other neighbors when I just want to get the paper, or wash the car, or look at my front yard!
What's even worse is one of my neighbors is especially creepy! He is semi-retired, and doesn't have enough to do so ends up spending too much time going around his front yard cutting down all of his trees and plants. For a while he was taking it out on his squirrels - he said they were hurting his roof, so he started killing them, leaving rat traps around his yard, and shooting them with a be be gun, some other neighbors got him to take up the rat traps, and for a while stop shooting them with his gun.
But this guy is too creepy, and it's as if he keeps his wife a prisoner - she doesn't drive, and he never takes her anywhere - except the doctor...they don't have any friends or family that visit...so it's extra creepy...I try not to think about it...I wish they would move like he said they would...he was going to paint his house and put it for sale, but he never seems to get to it...some people are just more than a little strange...

Are you sure it's your neighbor who's creepy and not you? None of the things you listed involve him interacting with you or disturbing your property. And how do you his wife's routine, or his? It sounds like you pay way too much attention, and that you're attempting to alienate some old guy and get him to move! So what if he cut down his trees. It's none of your business. You don't know what bad neighbors are.
