All I can tell you is to try and be patient. You said that the neigbor across the street had hummer have you tried hanging a feeder or two out in your front yard? I have them in the front, side and back. I only have one tree in my yard right now and it isn't one that a hummer would necessarily use but the neighbor behind me has trees

Eldon, keep in mind that Ruby-throated Hummingbirds don't form pair bonds - what you have is the corner pick-up bar.

Eldon, are you sure you neighbors are seeing hummingbirds? If they are hummers, they will visit your yard. You could just be missing them.
