I live in a 76-story tower and people are pretty friendly and you say hello by the pool, etc
Admittedly I'm British so my view on things is a bit skewed but I'd definitely call that polite rather than friendly. Here in the UK we say a happy, cheery hello to people even if we actively hate them.
- kolinko 5y agoI love in a 44-story building (Warsaw) and people are definitely more friendly than just polite - I know more neighbours after 2 years of living here than in all my previous places of living combined (childhood excluded, I lived in 10-story building in a new neighborhood, and we had a ton of children in my age)

(Born and raised in the "southeast", lived in few eastern countries, as well in several western ones). I've never felt the sense of community in the northwestern europe like in the (south)east, and I'm fairly engaged in local ongoings.
