I don't think people really change. For all my life the older folk have been talking about "how it was better in the old days" etc. When I was a nipper, it was "during the war, we..." etc. I've always lived alone (wouldn't have it any other way) with Parkinson's (it isn't that bad) and I have been bowled over with the unsolicited support offered by my neighbours, especially since Covid. The sense of community is alive and well here in Sedgeberrow. And these days, thanks to web sites like NextDoor, it may even be more effective.
The UK is a great place to live (yes, I have travelled widely), though the media focus endlessly on what's wrong, encouraging a spoiled, complaining mindset. Contrast that with a place where the media mostly report what's going right, like North Korea.
