I feel it is very rude and inconsiderate to appear unannounced. I will always call before going to see anybody and I expect the same respect. This is something I make clear to anyone who I share my address with. Right up front I tell them that I expect a phone call FIRST and that if they appear unexpected I will not answer the door. Period.
There are a few people in my life who have an open invitation and they know who they are. Otherwise...CALL FIRST!
