Definitely “anecdotal”.

People are always on the sidewalks or lawns talking and hanging out.

But not since this thing began.

but it’s good to see the Federalist putting out some propaganda for our side.

there was a group of 6 gathering last night at our apts courtyard, folks just have to get out of their places. Went down there they were all standing together like a regular cocktail party, no spacing at all so I came back home, it was good to hear the chatter and laughing.

Lots more people out and about in our little town, many groups of people include the whole range of ages from little kids to their parents to their (presumably) grandparents.

Kids riding bikes with an adult walking along, or riding with them.

I’m still chatting with my neighbor over the fence while we hang out laundry.

I'm suburban and what he's describing is exactly true. Kids are out playing in the street and 2 or 3 moms casually watching close by. I haven't seen anything like this since the 60”s. Suburban kids time is over structured here i.e. hockey teams, music lessons, dance rehearsals, you name it and they have an adult hovering over them

Hubby and I went for a walk the other day. Other folks were, too. We all kept our distance while waving and smiling. Talked to our neighbors from 10 feet away. Had a nice yak. We did see a party breaking up at a neighbor’s house. We didn’t call the cops.
