If you’re new to your neighborhood—assuming it’s a safe one—you’ll want to introduce yourself to your neighbors. Because they don’t yet know you, they’ll probably have a neutral perspective toward you. Your purpose in introducing yourself is to be friendly and polite and also meet people who could help you should you need assistance (e.g., someone to call for an ambulance) or advice (e.g., which local schools are the best).
Here’s how you might introduce yourself to your neighbor: “Mrs. Johnson, my name is Song Li. I’m your new neighbor. I’m happy to meet you and look forward to living in this beautiful area of San Diego.”
Most likely, your neighbor will ask you several questions about yourself—such as where you and your husband work, whether you have children, or where you lived previously. She may also invite you in for coffee and cookies. If she does and you have the time, accept her offer to come in. Many American women like inviting their neighbors into their homes, serving them food, and chatting.
