So, are you surprised to know Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert have been deemed the celebrities we'd most like to live next door to? The sixth annual Zillow Celebrity Neighbor survey listed the country power couple as ones we'd like be neighbors with. Taylor Swift and Reese Witherspoon tied for second place, each receiving 9 percent of the vote. However, nearly half of surveyed adults (45 percent) said they would not want to live next to any celebrities listed in the poll, up slightly from 42 percent last year. “Most people don’t want to live next to any celebrity, regardless of why they are famous,” said Zillow Chief Marketing Officer Amy Bohutinsky says. “In fact, more people voiced their desire not to have a celebrity neighbor in 2013 than in any of the past years we’ve run this poll.”

So who don't we want to live next door to? "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo!" a reality show that spotlights child beauty pageant contestant Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson and her family, were crowned the least desirable neighbors of 2012, receiving 21 percent of the vote. This is not the first time, though, a reality show cast has landed at the top of Zillow’s worst neighbor list. “This year we noticed a trend on the worst-neighbor side; for three years in a row now, the casts of reality television shows have dominated the top of our worst celebrity neighbor list. Not surprisingly, celebrities with full-time camera crews, in addition to paparazzi, aren’t America’s top choices to live next door,” said Bohutinsky. Read all about it here.
