I live in a city and neighborhood that is about 60% people of color, with about 50 percent black. My neighbor to the right is Black, behind me is Hispanic and to the left a mixed White/Black family. As for the relationship aspect, here is one experience that should describe it. Shortly after I moved in I ended up in the hospital and then rehab for almost a month. I didn't really know any of my neighbors, but one morning after I got back from rehab, I heard the noise of a lawnmower outside of my bedroom window. still weak, I slowly went to the window to find my Black neighbor cutting my grass. He didn't know me from Adam, yet he knew I was struggling and just did what he felt he should. Didn't care one bit if I was white.
