Summary
 For some, being a good neighbor means staying quiet, picking up after your dog and keeping your lawn tidy. But David Burton, the founder of Missouri Good Neighbor Week, says that our neighbor relationships could and should be deeper. Neighbors can help us overcome social isolation, provide assistance during life's emergencies and even help us save money by sharing resources. And, Burton says, an engaged and close-knit neighborhood can have positive rippling effects beyond just one street. This episode, Burton shares tips on getting to know your neighbors if you're starting from square one.
