Neighbors!
A couple of days after I moved into my new house, an older lady who lives across the street brought me some fresh-baked cinnamon rolls to welcome me to the neighborhood. Then, tonight, another older lady brought over some Chippers from Widman's, the local candy store (she didn't say so but I think her and her husband own or run the store). She sat and chatted with me for a while (mostly about all the terrible renters who have been in the house between us).
Frankly, I am stunned, but in a good way, at these neighborly gestures. In marked contrast to my experience at work and at my previous abode where no one really spoke to me there until a couple months before I moved out.
