The attached screenshots show what percentage of UK residents identify with different religions. As you can see there are various hotspots and areas where certain religions are fairly rare.
The question I'd like to ask is if you wanted to move to a different area how much thought, if any, would you give to the religious makeup of that area when choosing where to live?
How important is your neighbour's religion to you?
I live in India where most people follow Hinduism. I’m not religious (atheist; don’t believe in God either), and I don’t mind it when people discuss their religion with me. I will respect them and their beliefs as long as they don’t try to shove it down my throat.
I’ve changed schools thrice, and my friends were of different religion (s). The high school I attended from year 10 to 12 was diverse with many Christians, Sikhs and Muslims. Never once did I reduce someone to just their religion. I try to see individuals for who they are, not the religion they follow.
One of my neighbors is Christian and we get along fairly well. So no, my neighbor’s religion is not important to me.
Provided I don't have to hear about whatever invisble friend in the sky that they have I couldn't give less of a fuck.
General rule of thumb I have when it comes to dealing with thiests is;
If they have learnt the lessons of goodwill and tolerance for their fellow man from their "book" then they will be a kind and respectful individul.
If they constantly feel the need to talk about "God" or pull a "holier than thou" routine then it is done for vain and selfish reasons.
My idea of what a realationship between Man and God should be is a father's guiding hand to help show their child a better path for life. Not a kid on the playground saying "my dad can beat up you're dad".

I don't care about people's religious beliefs as long as the people are nice. The only thing that would be a drag would be living in an urban area that is dominated by religious radicals, whether they be Orthodox Jews, Zionists, Salafist Muslims, or fanatical Christians. Such people tend to gravitate to communities of their own kind. They are bigoted, exclusionary, and don't assimilate.

I don't mind talking to people who want to discuss non Christian views but if they try to force me to share their view and way of life, I will ghost them.
So long as your peaceful and don't got a stick up your rear I don't really care about what one believes in so long as you don't go about being a prick simple as that. I've always lived with the mindset of if u come In peace I'll do the same. But bring war to my door step and there will be no mercy or glory. I'll make sure he only history you have is that you ceased to exist.
As long as people keep religious fanaticism as far as possible from me, I don't mind. Fanaticism is always proof of deep stupidity and/or political barely hidden agenda. Sometimes it's interesting to discuss constructively about religious convictions and the linked philosophies. Around my place there are many different communities and thus different religions. Many muslims and christians for instance, but generally speaking people here seem tolerant with each other.
I don’t mind it tbh, as long as they don’t impose their belief on me, or insult my faith. I’m a Christian and I have had a few people who claimed they are “non religious”, yet tried to personal attack me.
As long as my neighbors don't invite me to whatever their religion is or tell me about how their god is better for me than whatever I'm doing, they can worship the flying spaghetti monster for all I care.
My specific neighbor's religion wouldn't be a consideration. I would want an area in which there was a place I could worship. But, more broadly, I might be concerned if I was in an area where I wouldn't be respected.
I don't care as long as their religion (or lack their of) leaves me and my beliefs alone. If it can't? Like a religion that calls for death to the infidels? Then I do care and would want them to either change to something less destructive or to be arrested.
I don’t give a dang about others religion, just like they shouldn’t give a dang about mine. As long as we are neighbours, the only thing we gotta worry about is where they can put their fence.
There's community like stuff about a lotta religion. I'd like to live somewhere there is probably like a church somewhere not too far away, doesn't have to be neighbors but I'd rather not be the only person in the area.

Highly matters to me that they they have none, and lucky religion in England is dying. Hopefully within the next 10 years, Christians will be under 20% in my city.

From these charts, I find it better for me to avoid the area around Leeds :D But then- l can always keep my home gates closed. So: as long as my neighbourhood isn't imposing their views on me, I' ll return the favour.
doesn't matter at all unless my neighbours were fanatics and pushy about it and i've grown up surrounded by people from a lot of different religions so i don't care
