Would you recognise your neighbour in the street?

Research by LV= Insurance suggests that, nationally, we each recognise 14 neighbours by sight. The thrust of research is that we're not as neighbourly as we could be; but looking at that figure I'm positive it's much lower in London. Do you know 14 of your neighbours? Some London-specific data: 42% felt there'd been an increase in local street crime; 12% thought that crime had increased twice as much as in other regions of the UK.

The fear of crime is always higher than actual stats. People only ever get to hear about the worse cases over and over again due to media coverage etc.
