I have two hives right in town. They are on a shed roof. Nearest neighbor
is 175 feet away but below the flight line. They are delighted to be able
to see the bees activity and the odd jar of honey doesn't hurt. They say
that an adjoining neighborhood group was commenting how well the flowers
and fruit trees were doing this year. Amazing! 

My hives are telltales to my main yard. When they are busy, the main yard
will be busy also.

Know your neighbors but try it if it can be done!.
