So move your monitor to a wall that faces outside the building,
vaguely in the middle of the wall. Ideally in front of a window.
(There's probably enough RF interference that Van Eck phreaking,
using existing technology--well, that what we know about--for it,
probably can't get you from across the street.)

Then worry about your upstairs and downstairs neighbors. ;^>

Or, really, just put some shielding around your machine. (Is
chicken-wire wrapping still considered good enough?)

(Fwiw, my monitor *is* in front of a window and I know my only
in-range neighbor. He owns a flower shop. ;^>)
