- There's a traffic accident on the street nearby and they're looking for someone who witnessed it

- Altercation at a neighbor's house and they come inform us what was going on

- A neighbor called the police and they're looking for the address

- Coordinating parking for a medical incident down the road

- Welfare check on the kids because the neighbors heard screaming

Just a bunch of little stuff over the years.

For me that would be annoying.

In my case, IIRC, once like 15-20 years ago for some paperwork that needs an adress verified by the police, or something like that. I don't remember if it was for me or my wife. I don't remember the details.

In this case they came to talk about the cameras he put up.

It's funny, reading that list, it all gives me an instinctual "less-nice neighborhood I wouldn't want to live in" vibe. But I'm sure it's perfectly normal for people who live in more exciting places.
