That's good to hear you have a tight nit community. I've never been to New York myself. All of my experience with cities have been in Texas and California. 

You might have had one neighbor that you where "friendly" with, but it was more of an acquaintance thing. They might help you out in a pinch. Other than that, most people just ignored you existence. Theft was common, and on one case I had someone threaten my life because somebody else vandalised their car and they thought I knew something about it because I happened to be walking my dog when they came out.

I am from a large sicilian family that lives in New York, mainly the bronx and long island. I have like over 100 relatives in the States and even more overseas. Theft isn't that bad where I am. People like to shit on our subways, but I am on in rn. That just how you get around. It does not have to have a car when things are so expensive already. And yeah, having a nice car in some areas isn't a good idea to begin with.
