Is this rude?

Living in Nassau County we have the good fortune of being able to call up the sanitation department and schedule a "big pickup" of items larger than what you would put in your usual trash. This includes mattresses, dishwashers, carpeting, and more.

This morning my neighbors put out items for a big pickup. From what I could see it looked like a lot of old office equipment. Later on I noticed the neighborhood snoop had strolled down the block to take a good look at this trash up close and personal. She stood there for a good five minutes staring at these peoples trash. She then started walking home but turned around to stare a little longer.

I suppose there are many worse things a neighbor can do, but really, is this kind of scrutiny necessary? This snoop is known to ask way too many personal question and accost workers who are working at her neighbors houses. She also likes to tell anybody who will listen, exactly how much her neighbors are paying for private school and other fees.

I think she should just mind her own business.
