I'm starting to think I need new neighbours then.
The vast majority of my neighbours, though they appear to be regular players (most are progressing well in the event)-- have junky towns. I based my original post on what I've seen. Towns with no roads, large piles of duplicate premium items, blue houses as far as you can see, etc. Very few of my neighbours seem to put any care in their towns...
If it bothers you then yes maybe it is time. I know I got tired of hunting through some peoples giant mess so I cleaned house and got rid of neighbors like that. I put a lot of effort into my town and prefer those who do the same. I keep a fairly short (30 or so) neighbors and its usually people I've met here so I dont run into problems like that too much anymore.
