It takes an average of five months to feel part of a community after moving house, a study has found.
A poll of 2,000 adults revealed 46 per cent consider getting to know your neighbours to be one of the best things about living somewhere new.
Top ways to make the first move when new to a neighbourhood include buying your neighbour a bottle of wine (20 per cent) or inviting them over to share a glass with you (30 per cent).
