As for neighbors, just don't get a rooster. Hens do make some noise but they're not bad at all.
As for foxes, you can use a mobile coop+run. Move it once per day to provide fresh grass and distribute the fertilizer byproduct.

I know that my neighbors down the street have chickens because I occasionally hear them, but their yard is completely fenced in. I only know them well enough for casual greetings when we see them in passing, and there's a language barrier preventing more in depth conversation.
I don't talk to them much besides "hello", as communication is difficult since they don't speak much English and I don't speak much (any) Swahili.
The coop is somewhere in here: https://i.imgur.com/t6FqF6G.png
