I know many people have examples of a downturn in common courtesy. Especially since Covid. I've seen lots of speculation about it being all the "new" campers that have joined the fun and not understanding "campground etiquette". That may be a part of it.
Maybe I'm oblivious to it or the Midwest is a little more courteous, but I haven't seen it anymore than I always have. Kids will be kids, running around and being oblivious to where they are. All the places I've been (over 50 nights) camping in 2022, I don't recall any animal issues or people behaving inappropriate or even loud talking, music, babies or cars. The biggest issue was the hoard of cars (4 trucks, 2 golf carts and 2 utility trailers) and people across from us one weekend at the Fort last January. There were quite a few people on the 2 sites. But they were well behaved and even invited us over for a beer one morning when they were all out cooking breakfast. They all cleared out by Monday morning and things were vacant until the next Friday.

Maybe I'm just lucky.
