[quote=Anonymous]This post is nuts.

First, you don't even know that these people are at vacation homes -- your other neighbor just "speculates" that.  It sounds like some of them are around, some are not; the latter may be staying with, e.g., family who can provide childcare so the parents can work.  Or they may be sick, for all you know.

But fine, let's assume they're at a vacation home.  You are glad they're gone (it's peaceful) but mad they left?

And now you prefer they not return to your neighborhood ever again, because they're not like you: they haven't spent their spare time with you doing things you value (cleanups?) and haven't been at home for parts of this year, which means they aren't "committed to the neighborhood."  Because they have "other options" besides hanging out with you.  Please try saying this aloud without sounding like a TV villain.  I bet you can't.

You ask what the the point is of living in the neighborhood when covid is over.  The point is to have a place to live near the jobs they will presumably need to commute to, and near the schools their children will attend in person.
