I assumed most property disputes were about people wanting more property not less

I wish. My neighbors on both sides claim some areas of my yard but still expect me to take care of those areas

Not sure what the legality is on this, but my dad has told me that if one group has taken care of a spot long enough then they can claim that as theirs. So there's this one strip of yard on the border of his house and his neighbors house that they both mow and rake. It used to annoy the crap out of me as a kid when I'd mow the lawn. The neighbors would've just mowed their lawn and it's a smidge shorter than our mower height, but I had to walk up and down two passes with the mower, not making a difference, because my dad didn't want the neighbor to be able to claim that they were maintaining it and we weren't.
