How did no one notice?

Unfortunately, a lot of people just don't know their neighbours these days - I'm more saddened by the fact that her own family may not have noticed she'd died five years ago tbh.

Maybe she didn't have any.
I find it very worringly though that she had no friends that would wonder where she was.

Oh that is really terrible, I drive along that street a few days a week and used to live along the road. It is a terrible shame she didn't have any family to notice her absence. Where she lived was very central and probably was mostly young renters who would be short term and not know the neighbours.
