I have lived here 10 years..there was a woman across the way from us that we knew very well but she moved last year. Since then I can name one of my neighbors by first name but not surname. People know my name, I guess because I am 'the American' but 10 years on I feel bad asking them what their names are. More and more this is becoming an area where people don't stick around long enough anyway to keep track who is living in which apartment.
