I have seen each-anywhere from free to hundreds of dollars. Better? I've had both. There is no "better". It all depends on what you want.

How much room do you have?

Are you looking for fun or meat/eggs?

Is it a pet you're hoping for?

Or do you want something to look at and not touch?

With neighbors so close, quail might be the best option. Roosters are not an option with people so close. If it is chickens that you'd like, consider serama bantams (the smallest chicken breed in the world). Mine are quite quiet and I do not think your neighbors would have a problem with them. I also live in town.

Quail will start laying eggs at 6-8 weeks and you can expect 6-7 eggs a week from them. The eggs also taste better and the quail are quieter than chickens.

I've got 8 chickens and I've had chickens for 3 years now, but after eating quail (which you can do as early as 5 weeks) I'm seriously considering graduating my chickens and going nuts with quail.

We're not allowed to have chickens in my city, but Japanese quail are allowed, so that's another consideration, especially if you're worried about neighbours.

Good luck and have fun.
