The present evaluation of the observability of isolated neutron stars (NSs) that accrete interstellar material, as sources of quiescent and transient UV and X-radiation gives attention to the solar neighborhood spatial and kinematic properties indicated by Monte Carlo simulations of 100,000 orbits in the Galactic potential. A semianalytic method which can swiftly reproduce the full kinematic properties of the local NS population is shown to yield excellent agreement with Monte Carlo results. An investigation is conducted of the emission properties of accreting NSs moving supersonically in dense atomic and molecular clouds.
