Moved into a new neighborhood last June and I wouldn't say we were "welcomed" per se...no fresh baked pies, knock on the door & a handshake. Kind of expected though being where we are in society.
"The neighbors" across the street, late 30s couple (same as us) with a 3yr old daughter (we have a 3yr old daughter and a 1 yr old son). I've had a couple conversations with the guy and seems ok, known as the neighborhood drinker/partier....cool by me. The wife has a slight lisp which may contribute to the following: my wife has tried multiple times to strike up conversation with her being that they are both stay at home moms, to no avail. The wife actively straight up ignores her in common one-on-one situations. My wife will say "hi" she'll turn around and go inside.
"Different strokes for different folks" is what my grandma would always say.

I'd say my wife is somewhat of an introvert like this example. Although a lot of that has stemmed with our ex-neighbors being NOSEY as ****.
EVERY TIME we would come outside, they would come out and try to start conversation and ask us questions about our jobs, our kids, etc.
Sometimes people just want to be left the **** alone.
