    The article talks about giving you the sense of community back since you’re closer to your neighbors and can hear them. We moved into a neighborhood that has no privacy fencing. Instead we have low open rail fencing. If my neighbors are playing cornhole in their yard I can literally talk to them from inside my house. It’s been awesome since we’ve gotten to know a lot of them.

      In my neighborhood we don’t even have fences between houses. Every time it snows a few inches you can see the common paths that the wildlife takes from one yard to the next.
