My answer to "what makes a good neighbor".  JMO  I think it's someone you can trust, someone that will step in and help you--and someone you want to help.  So it's kind of a real mutuality of being a support.  They are people that live next to us--that are there.  It's people we can borrow from, checks on us when we need help, support us if we are gone, bring in the newspapers, etc.  People that we can Agree to Disagree with and still be civilized about it--they're our neighbors.  No one divides a community---only if you allow it to.
I don't always see eye to eye with every neighbor I have and that's ok...I'll still be there to bail them out if needed and fight for their rights.  Maybe we have toooo much time on our hands!
 
As FDR asserted "In the field of world policy I would dedicate to the policy of the good neighbor--the neighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does so, respects the rights of others."
