There are many things that contribute to making an apartment community an exceptional place to live. In addition to spacious floorplans, community amenities, and modern appliances, one factor that is sometimes overlooked is developing and maintaining friendly, respectful relationships with neighbors. After all, in an apartment setting where walls, community amenities, and other spaces are often shared, keeping the wants and needs of your neighbors in mind during your day-to-day life is increasingly important.
Here are just a few things you can do every day to remain respectful and courteous of your neighbors:
- Practice good noise etiquette. This can include keeping music and television volume at appropriate levels, avoiding any unnecessary noise late at night and early in the morning, and being mindful of which walls in your apartment are shared with a neighbor.
- Keep the entryway to your apartment and the area around it tidy.
- Maintain a friendly demeanor. You can wave, smile, or otherwise greet your neighbors as you walk or drive by. If you notice a new resident moving in, make an effort to introduce yourself.
- Take note of and carefully follow the speed limit and other traffic signs while driving on community property.
