Is this a bad neighbor?

I moved into a semi about 6 months ago. The owners said a single man lived next to us. I never saw him for the first three months, he never came to say hi or even waves. He pulls right into the garage and shuts the door. Only after a while he said a few words. He doesn't shovel any snow or help dig our combined driveway. He also plays loud bass sometimes into the night ALL night. The weirdest part is he just seems to try to avoid contact with people. Nobody visits him except one time his mom who seemed normal.
He has a job and two cats and smokes a lot. Is this normal? I'm just used to people being at least a bit take friendly .Is it normal I think he's a bad neighbor?

    I think you expect to much from your neighbors :P... the loud music is rude, but they don't have to be friendly or people persons

    It could be a hell of a lot worse, you know. He could be a drug dealer, playing rap music as loud as it gets all night long. His friends and customers could throw garbage around in front of your house and the cops could bust down your door, mistaking your place for his.
    Be thankful for things as they are, for they can ALWAYS get worse.

    My neighbor is also like this except I can hear him talking about me on his cell to someone. It creepy because I never talk to him or do anything that would cause him to complain. He talks about personal info that he should never even know about me unless he puts a cup on the wall and listens to all my conversations. I hate neighbors like that. Goodluck.. hopefully your post doesnt get 404ed soon because the 404 troll is at it again.

    Look, just leave me and my cats alone will ya? I love playing my bass ALL night. And you can go shovel your own snow.

    the loud music isn't particularly neighborly but the avoidance is normal. Some people just like to be alone.

    Just be thankful he keeps to himself. I've had neighbours way worse than that.

    He's a serial killer.
    He's playing loud music to drown out the screams of preteen girls.

    My neighbors don't clean up after their large dog who poops all over our shared duplex yard. They also abandoned their female cat and are content to let the other neighbors feed her and deal with her being in heat. Is this a bad neighbor?

      Yes. You should collect the poop and put it through their mail box or mail slot.

    Meh. Just seems like a person who likes his privacy. I can relate. The bass may get on my nerves from time to time, but I'm pretty chill so it's all good. I wouldn't mind doing all the shoveling either. I enjoy that type of stuff.

    He could be growing weed or something so he's just trying to keep to himself so he doesn't draw attention to himself.
