Wow, is all I can say. Tell us how you REALLY feel. I would probably be considered one of "them city-slickers", but hear my side. I bought my property (55A) 3 yrs ago and have gotten nothing but grief from the neighbors. I introduced myself to those that came around with a smile and a handshake, explained that I wanted to retire and raise horses, plant some hay, etc. The property is vacant, zoned agriculture. They have been ornery, rude, crude, downright nasty. All in the name of "we were here first". They each have 3-7 acres fronting my land and considered the property their personal recreation area prior to my purchase, hunting, fishing, running their ATVs all over it. Granted, they are not "REAL farmers", but the attitude is the same as yours: "NOT WELCOME HERE". They claim to be "country folk", saying "we do things differently up HERE", but the bottom line is they are not very good neighbors, in my opinion.
I would tell you the same thing I told them: If you wanted to keep me (or any other "city-slicker") from moving here, you should have bought the property yourself. That being said, I wouldn't stereotype all "country-folk" to be like my neighbors, just as you shouldn't stereiotype all new neighbors as "city slickers". Give them a chance and remember, the reason more property is available is because "real farmers" are selling off portions in small chunks. So, if you want to blame anyone, blame the farmers for splitting up their spreads. Actually, that might be you someday when you want to retire and cash out your investment. JMHO

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
