Considering that one is just out the road from me, and has been for years, I would continue to do as I've always done-nothing. Let them believe as they wish, they aren't bothering me a bit.

That would be great, I'd never be late again.
Actually, the Kingdom Halls are very well kept and nice looking buildings and landscaping. Other than a little more traffic, I can't see how it would affect you at all. If a Kingdom Hall is in a residential area, we are always encouraged to socialize after the meeting inside and not outside, to show respect for our neighbors.
Just because a Kingdom Hall is next door, doesn't mean anyone will be coming to your door any differently than before. Everything is done in an orderly manner. There are territories assigned etc and worked every six months or so.

properly... using fact this is extra low fee and much less complicated. My kingdom hall purely has 2 small abode windows next to the door... my pal's kingdom hall has 6 extensive abode windows in the auditorium... using fact the way we build kingdom halls have replaced relatively... my kingdom hall become equipped approximately 13 years in the past, my acquaintances kingdom hall become equipped 2 years in the past. i think of protection might have something to do with it, yet no longer plenty... using fact my acquaintances kingdom hall is nice next to a intense college! and has been egged some cases... yet my kingdom hall is in a good end of city... So older kingdom halls don’t (for the main section) have many abode windows... extra cutting-edge ones (for the main section) have extra... we are no longer hiding something, and persons who say different sensible are only incorrect.

I would treat you very kindly and realize that you're faced with a Ganesh doorbell when you come to my house so it may give you pause before you ring it. I also have a chalk board that says Namaste......I don't think they'll be building a Kingdom Hall next door to my house anytime soon......

Move. Move quickly.
While Jehova's Witnesses are not rowdy and don't cause to much trouble other than knocking on doors, when a new Kingdom Hall goes up, property values in the immediate area usually sink between 5 and 15% percent. That is a WHOLE lot.

Do things nicely to convince them on your belief. Let them continue their works as long as the have paid to the government the necessary fees as to building permit or construction permit as the case maybe. The building of structure should be on legal basis.

I wouldn't mind. Witnesses are generally very quiet and respectful people and they take good care of their Kingdom Halls. I think they would make good neighbors.

Hang garlic in the windows to keep them out!!! :P
I'd make sure I had a good visual screen and some plants to reduce noise between the properties. And just to freak them out, I'd put my animal skeletons on the front front lawn, maybe get some blow up dolls. I wouldn't be able to resist sticking my fart machine up the back at least once. It's very realistic sounding. When they're arriving for a meeting I'd sit outside in my underwear and stare at them as they went past. Do some chanting meditations. Whatever. They're easily shocked.

Be happy they choose your neighborhood to locate in. They always improve on appearances. You may be hard pressed to keep your home as nice as their Kingdom Hall will be kept.
You will also be treated with warmth and dignity.

I'd get to prayer right away, that nobody would get injured during the construction, and then I'd go round with a tray of buns and drinks (non-alcoholic, even though some of them drink rather a lot of it). I'd tell them I'd be praying for them every time I see them coming and going, and when their meetings are on, that God would have mercy on them and reveal what his scriptures are REALLY saying by the power of the Holy Spirit. I don't like to make people feel uncomfortable, but it would be my bounden Christian duty.
