We have seven acres in the country. We do have neighbors, one being very close to our property line. Another works mostly out of town and the third house is empty and for sale. We have total privacy on our back porch and back yard as well as the back acreage. Very seldom do i dress when at home or outside.
We have a good size yard that I also happens to be very open. Our one neighbor is rarely home in the summer and the other historically doesn't come out. I've been out there nude before, but they just recently got a puppy who frequently comes visiting...
Our home is in the suburbs with 1/4 to 1/3 acre lots, two of my neighbors have two story homes that overlook our backyard. About ten years ago We said something about not being very modest and they might see something. Neither neighbor cares. I'm nude in the backyard as often as possible during the summer and don't worry about it.
So many posts here talk about privacy hedges, trees, screens, etc. are you really sure it's necessary? In my experience with two homes now it is not. The neighbors have seen and don't care.
My back garden is surrounded by neighbours on all sides. But my house was built first and I had it from new. Every time another house was built we planted a tall tree to block the view. Now my garden is surrounded by tall trees and nobody can see in.
We do have a 6' wood fence around the yard which is standard in our part of the country but we can't do a lot of privacy planting because we have 9 large oak trees in the yard and planting / watering under them too much is detrimentatal to their health. So having talked to the neighbors and them not caring works.
