We do still experience some of that in Scottsdale, but not to the level it once was - still good nonetheless. I had a brother I got with just this week, who asked me about this - he hasn't been around much for about 10 years for some personal reasons (divorce and was out of the country). He said he missed the house-to-house interaction too.

However, I do get with saints in at least two, small and informal brothers' gatherings every week, for very good fellowship. We fellowship openly and eat together. Sometimes there will be one or two other times of fellowship and food with saints during the week. So while the quantity is maybe not like I remember in some bygone LC times, the quality is pretty good . . .
