Most of us don’t think about giving our neighbors gifts until a holiday rolls around—but Thanksgiving is actually the perfect time. After all, these are the people who watch your house when you’re away, bring in your mail, or lend you a shovel when the snow piles up.
A thoughtful gesture at Thanksgiving doesn’t need to be big or expensive—it just needs to say, “I’m grateful you’re next door.” The best gifts for neighbors are practical, seasonal, and friendly, with just enough charm to feel special. Below, you’ll find ideas that strike exactly that balance.
