Who Are These People?

As I have said many times here, I love to watch a show called House Hunters. There are several little quirks about that show that make me laugh though. This happens so many times on that show. A person(s) will be looking for a house in a major city but their complaint will be when looking at the house "I can see the neighbors." Well, yeah!! You are in a major city afterall. If they do not want to see any people, why don't they try to find a house on a mountain? Or on the moon? Who are these people that think it is possible to move somewhere and not see any neighbors?
