Default Changes in the 'hood

For decades, the neighbors consisted of middle-class folks who enjoyed block parties, entertaining the neighbors' kids, and getting along well among themselves.

Today the neighbors are McMansion owners with considerable wealth and keep to themselves and complain about what their neighbors are doing.

I used to have nightly bonfires. Now, they would call the police or fire department without consulting me first.

Those were the days.
